ABC+ Codfish in Caldeirada Sauce (Tomato Stew)
Caldeirada is a traditional Portugeuse Fish Stew with a tomato base. This one definiely has a kick and we’d rate it a medioum plus spice level.
Bacalhau is salt cod that has been reconstituted from it’s dried state. It is the backbone of Portuguese cuisine! The dried cod is soaked for days to remove the majority of the salt, and the fish shockingly become a thick tender filet once again. There is no added salt in this tin but there is residual saltiness in bacalhau, so if you are sensitive to salt you may want to skip this one. We love it on crusty bread with butter to balance the flavors.
About ABC+:
ABC+ is the newest addition to the Jose Gourmet family of conservas coming out of Portugal. This line is very small production (smallest cannery in the world), and is pushing the boundaries of tinned fish by specializing in sauces that we don’t normally see in the tinned fish world. They opened their own cannery in Northern Portugal so they could do R&D and develop these unique parirings, and we are so stoked to carry these!
What’s unique:
Round tins to keep pieces of larger fish like trout more intact (wait until you see how beautiful the trout is with the skin on).
The concept is this - incredible fish in incredible sauces. FIRST - The colored dot on the box corresponds to a sauce, for example a yellow dot is their curry sauce (my current fave). Every box with a yellow dot will be some type of fish in curry sauce. SECOND - The shape on the front of the box corrresponds to the type of fish, for example the whale tale in the shape of the letter T is for Truta (Trout). So all boxes that have the T are trout and depending on the color of the dot you know the sauce. “ABC+” means find the letter plus find the dot.
Bonus points if you speak Portuguese since the letters align with that spelling of the word! Cheat sheet: B = Bacalhau which is salt cod, and C = Carapaus which is Horse Mackerel.
Ingredients: Codfish, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Tomato Pulp, Onion, Garlic, Red Pepper, Chili.
