r/Tinnedfish

I forgot to take a pic when I opened my own tin so I grabbed this from the Donki facebook page.

These were tasty and a bit sweeter than I was expecting. Kinda sad the ramen I paired them with sucks so I'm just fishing the fish out to eat them.

Just got my 1st order of tinned seafood from Caputo’s!!! More fun than Amazon! I still rely on Amazon though.

I cannot wait to try some of my first’s, like the pate’s, Ramon Peña, the Bonito. Wildfish Cannery’s smoked king salmon is new to me also. As you can see I love their smoked coho salmon.

And, I need to read Ann Hezel’s book too. Can’t wait!

So i first tried it solo out of the can. Some were quite chewy. i dont mind that so much but it is noticeable the flavor was good but mainly had the taste of the smoky oil.

I then toasted some sourdough with the oil under the broiler. One side with some white lemon vinegar. chopped the clams in quarters and placed on the toast. one slice i left in the oven to see how it impacted the clams.

This revealed the oil is the real star here. It affected the bread in a way that was deep but not pungent i had some furikake on the toast too. This tasted much better with the warm bread.

The 2nd slice with the lightly toasted clams was even better and helped with the chewyness. They loosened up a bit and there was more flavor from the clam.

Overall i wouldent buy again because if the price but am on the hunt for another razor clam tin for sure.

Was inspired by someone else’s Asian store post so I went to Hong Phat (that’s what she said) and got all these for dirt cheap. Abolone was the most expensive at $5. I tried both the eels already and they were amazing over rice and some garlic chili flakes.

Anyone tryna these Abalone before?

Also just trying to do my part and break up the nonstop FW posts.

I never tried mussels before so I had to guarantee I would enjoy the tin of Fishwife and added it to my Alltime favorite pizza 4 topping combination on a white pizza; one slice with just pineapple onion garlic the other with (my fav ! try it !) sausage too try all 4 sometime… I roasted baked even more garlic for added kicks 8.9 / 10

I only bought the weird bowls. The lobster didn't appeal to me. slightly regret it, might have been worth a try.

Ate both with rice and seaweed. The mackerel was meaty and the sauce was light and slightly sweet. The sardines are in a richer, sweeter miso sauce and tastes better eaten with a lot of rice. I love both but prefer the mackerel slightly more for the meatiness and because it’s less rich, but both are really yummy!

Long time lurker, first time poster. Have never tried these guys but found them online, and with a 4.9 star rating on Google, I couldn’t resist. I’m pumped to dig in!

IDK, maybe I’m just not hungry enough. Trying to find a redeeming quality…

One of the best ways to use a tin IMO is to just chuck it in some pasta. Quick, easy, and if done right, cheap! These are just some tins of squid I found in Portugal (about €1.50 each), I'd compare them to TJ's calamari in olive oil. I preferred the Pitéu, but mixed into a dish, you can barely tell the difference between the two.

Here's the base recipe if you're interested:

• Package of long pasta (spaghetti/linguine/etc)
• 4 cloves of garlic (chopped)
• 2 tbsp of tomato paste (I just eyeball this TBH)
• Red pepper flakes
• 2 cans of tinned fish in olive oil

1. Cook your pasta in heavily salted water.
2. While that's happening, add just the oil from your tins to a large pan on medium.
3. Add your chopped garlic+red pepper flakes and cook til fragrant. Don't let it burn!
4. Add the tomato paste and cook until it darkens a smidge and starts to split.
5. Add the tinned fish for just a minute or two to heat. (If you're using sardines/etc, the more you move them around the more they'll break up. It's up to you how "mushy" you want them in the sauce)
6. Add in your pasta and move it around so everything gets nice and coated. Save some of your pasta water to loosen things if you need to.
7. Enjoy!

If you want to make an even lazier version, use garlic powder instead of fresh garlic and make your sauce in the same pot you boiled the pasta in (after setting it aside ofc). If you want to fancy it up, you can add fresh parsley, capers, cherry tomatoes, a squeeze of lemon juice, a tab of butter. Whatever floats your boat!

Ate both with rice and seaweed. The mackerel was meaty and the sauce was light and slightly sweet. The sardines are in a richer, sweeter miso sauce and tastes better eaten with a lot of rice.

I tend to find tinned salmon fishy, but this is lovely!

Very subtle spice, nice creamy texture

Solid thick cuts, not overly fishy, ate them cold! I didn’t see any of the vegetables that it was advertised.

Fish is dense and flavorful! Tin Fish spring rolls win every time

The Galatian sauce in the scallops was absolutely delicious. The trout was sweet and also delicious. Garlic and White wine mussels bought out of a box on reduced from a local supermarket. The whole experience of my Friday night off work with bae has been excellent. Chefs kiss. It's me, I'm the chef
