Macks in Mustard from Mouettes D'arvour!
I picked this tin up based on the large amount of positive reviews I had seen about it. The first thing I noticed about this tin is it is hefty. The tin itself carried some bulk, but the fillet inside, as you can see, was pretty substantial.
I also picked up a small baguette from the same French grocer I got the tin. Then I hit it with some sea salt, cracked black pepp, a squirt of lemon, and topped with sliced radishes. I think I overestimated how rich the sauce might've been because I don't think it necessarily needed the lemon and radish to cut through the richness, but I don't regeret the decision. If anything, the lemon added a little more freshness of flavor and the radish added a perfect crunchy texture.
The fish was slightly pungent, but manageable. I don't always buy tins of fish in a sauce (aside from olive oil) because I like to dress them up with my own condiments and toppings, but this was pretty good. The fish didn't take a backseat to the sauce and the sauce, as I mentioned above, wasn't so powerful that it stole focus. I recommend this tin if you can find it, but I think it should be dressed up a bit.
