The French take tins like this seriously enough to date them by year and leave them in the cupboard to mellow, on the principle that the oil keeps working on the fish. You needn't go that far, but this one keeps for years, so you could.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is also the plainest tin we sell, with no sauce to hide behind, which is rather the point. If the fish weren't good, you'd know. (Lemon if you have one; bread regardless.) Don't throw away the oil: it's extra virgin, it now tastes of sardine, and it makes the best dressing in the house for a potato salad.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach tin carries 18.7g of protein, and sardines are among the best sources of omega-3 you can buy. Our customers rate us 4.7 from more than 25,000 reviews, and the tinned fish shelf is where many of them start.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you'd rather cook your own, our \u003ca href=\"\/products\/whole-cornish-msc-sardines\"\u003eWhole Cornish MSC Sardines\u003c\/a\u003e are the barbecue kind.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Fish Society","offers":[{"title":"Pack \/ 120g","offer_id":64940198429049,"sku":"810165","price":7.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0751\/9489\/2598\/files\/Sardines_in_Extra_Virgin_Olive_Oil_4.jpg?v=1792571248","url":"https:\/\/www.thefishsociety.co.uk\/products\/sardines-in-extra-virgin-olive-oil","provider":"The Fish Society","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
