Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 2-3 tins good quality fish or seafood
- assorted olives
- cornichons or other pickled vegetables
- potato chips I love the Patatas Fritas by the Spanish brand Bonilla a la Vista
- crackers and/or toasted slices of crusty bread
- a selection of finishing salts
- extra-virgin olive oil optional
- assorted cheeses optional
- fresh or dried fruit optional
Instructions
- Open the tins of fish or seafood and drain only if necessary. Arrange the tins on a large serving board or platter. Add small bowls of olives, pickled vegetables and mustard, then fill in the board with potato chips, crackers and toasted bread. Finish with a few small piles of finishing salts and a drizzle of good olive oil, if desired. Serve immediately and let everyone build their own bites.
Choose tins with different flavors and textures rather than several similar fish. Pair a rich tuna or mackerel with briny mussels or anchovies, and don't automatically drain a good-quality olive oil packed tin. That flavorful oil is part of the board.
