Small Sardines in Tomato Sauce

Portugal 

An evocative name ripe with meaning, so Portuguese and at the same time universal, JOSÉ, means "one who adds” – to the world, and to your plate. Their purpose is to preserve tradition and the highest standards of quality across their wide range of offerings. Sourced from the Atlantic and Mediterranean, petingas or small sardines are prepared with tomato pulp, combined with extra virgin olive oil, and seasoned with onion, garlic, white wine, sugar, white pepper & paprika for a savoury, umami powerhouse. A proverb of sorts shared, “When the sardine asked the petinga (small sardine) what she wanted to be when she grew up, she replied: small! So the sardine asked again: and when you're little, what do you want to be? I want to be big!, replied the petinga. The sardine wasn't kidding, he slapped it and the petinga turned as red as a tomato”, tell us if you think there is a hidden meaning here!? Enjoy as a heaping pile of herb topped sardine spaghetti.
