FAQ
Our expert answers your questions
Which spices are used?
The exact composition is stated on the label. Prunier favours subtle spices that enrich without masking: the spiced dimension comes to complete the profile of the sardine, without turning the product into an aromatic marinade. The spices may include pink peppercorns, mild pepper, and Mediterranean herbs depending on the recipe.
Does the spiced version improve like the plain version?
Yes, the sardine evolves in its oil, and the spices develop and find their balance gradually. Several enthusiasts feel that the spiced version benefits particularly well from a few years of keeping, as the aromas of the spices integrate harmoniously into the whole.
What is the difference from the plain version?
The plain version offers a purer profile, centred on the sardine and the olive oil. The spiced version adds a further aromatic dimension. For a comparative tasting, serving the two versions side by side reveals what the spices bring, in the spirit of educating the palate.
Which accompaniments should be favoured?
Favour neutral supports (country bread, plain crackers) that let the spices express themselves. Avoid breads that are already flavoured, or supports with their own spices, which could compete with one another. To drink, a mineral white wine or a dry rosé lets the product express itself.
