Ortiz catches its sardines between August and November with purse seine nets, preferably at dawn. The fish are cleaned by hand, one by one, lightly fried in olive oil and then packed carefully by hand, following the old 'a la antigua' method.

The light frying gives these sardines their own flavour, different from sardines that are simply cooked in the tin. According to Ortiz, sardines improve in flavour and quality with time, becoming more tender and delicate.

Sardine (FISH), olive oil, salt.
