Ati Manel’s authentic Smoked Spiced Mackerel Pâté is a celebration of traditional Portuguese cuisine. Sourced from waters off Portugal and Spain, the rich mackerel takes center stage, enhancing by olive oil, tomato, and smoky spice. The texture is fluffy, almost airy, making it the perfect spread for a cracker or baguette. Its retro, artistic packaging lends itself to gifting, especially when paired with a jar of Fly by Jing Sichuan Chili Crisp for spice-loving friends.
“I always stock my pantry with tinned fish not just because I love it, but also for its versatility. This pâté is a favorite because of its fluffy texture and warming flavors. I eat it on sandwiches with fresh veg, and serve it as an appetizer with pickled carrots.”
Mackerel [Scomber japonicus] (60%), Extra Virgin Olive Oil (21.4%), Tomatoes (14.6%), Spices [Vinegar, Pepper] (1.7%), Chili pepper (1.3%), Natural Smoke, and Salt.
- Ati Manel founded and ran his Portuguese tinned fish company from 1922 until the 1950s. The business was later revived when his great-grandson, Luís Mendonça, was inspired by the discovery of his great-grandfather’s notes and recipes.
- Luis continues his great-grandfather's legacy, using his recipes and classic spice blends to honor Portuguese flavors while giving them a contemporary spin.
- Ati Mantel sources and hand-selects fish from the pristine waters off Portugal and Galicia, Spain, an area renowned for their high-quality fish.
- The company also stands out for its unique packaging. Luís, an artist, uses his talents to create elevated, colorful designs, making their tinned fish great for gifting.
