Spring Feasting for Easter

Creamy, luxurious garlic mayonnaise, lightly smoked. Fantastic for sandwiches & grilled meats. A rich and indulgent alioli made using oak-smoked olive oil from Toledo. This oil is naturally smoked over the fires that are used to dry the peppers which make Pimentón de la Vera. The garlic gives it an intense aroma and a full, savoury flavour and this condiment is traditionally served alongside paella, arroz negro and other rice dishes. It is also a delicious accompaniment to grilled meats or with simple boiled vegetables. Alternatively use it instead of mayonnaise for use in sandwiches, particularly with fish or chicken.

Our Arbequina oil is produced in Navarra, using 100% Arbequina olives, this varietal is most associated with Northern Spain. The finished oil is sweet and grassy with hints of green tomato and a lightly peppery aftertaste.

Sherry vinegar offers one of the most distinctive tastes in Spanish cooking and this example, from one of Spain's finest sherry producers, is among the best. Made using the same solera method used for the production of fino sherries, the result is a rich, nutty, yeasty, complex and deeply flavoured vinegar. Aged for 15 years.

Tender, moist, flavourful. The star of rustic stews, fresh salads, dips. Easy to desalt at home.Salt cod has been a staple of Basque cookery for many hundreds of years. The best fish come from the cold Atlantic waters around Iceland and Faroe Islands and these are then brought to Spain where they are salted by experts. This style of cod, bacalao verde, is not as heavily salted as traditional types. However, this product still needs to be de-salted by soaking in water for at least 12 hours before use. Ideally the water should be changed several times. 

Grown in the upper reaches of the fertile valley of the River Ebro in Navarre whose conditions are ideal for the cultivation of artichokes. They are partially cooked, before the leaves are removed and the hearts are trimmed by hand. Cooked to Brindisa's specifications they have a delicious slightly nutty, waxy flavour.

Potent sweetness. Crimson red. Flamed then hand peeled & packed. Super versatile.  Brought back to Spain from the Americas by returning conquistadores, these small red peppers are a very mild variety of chili. Grown in the Lodosa DOP area in Navarra these piquillo peppers are roasted whole and then peeled by hand. The peppers are a deep scarlet and their flavour is intense, sweet and mildly piquant. A 1-star Great Taste Awards winner in 2025 Note from the judges: "These are attractive piquillo peppers and taste natural. The peppers are meaty and firm. They are sweet and the judges like the large pieces. They would be a great store cupboard ingredient."

Fragrant, edge of bitterness. Hand-picked highest grade Iranian crocus stigma. Infuse for flavour. The most expensive spice in the world has long been used in the Moorish influenced south of Spain. Each stigma is still picked by hand and it takes 250,000 flowers to produce 1kg of saffron stamens. This high quality, Mancha grade saffron is grown in Iran, which is responsible for 90% of global production.

This rice is cultivated on the Moorish built river terraces of the town of Calasparra in Murcia. The variety (balilla x sollana) is highly absorbent taking up about 2.5 times its weight in liquid, so it can really show off the flavour of a good stock.
