Spanish Pate

Spanish pate can be purchased in all good supermarkets, upon opening the jar you will find a consistency very much like 'pate' however there is much more to the humble pate... especially when it comes to consistency and more importantly - fresh ingredients. Pictured left is a sardine pate with mixed herbs, some recipes suggest tinned fish but we prefer fresh (baked and flaked!) for a fuller fish pate.

This one you cannot spread... its chunky and packed with flavour and on fresh crusty bread with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil it is sure to please even the most seasoned of seafood enthusiasts! Over at Orce Serrano Hams we have been making and publishing recipes over the past few months and as such have created a 'Dips, Salsas and Pate' recipe section, with over 450 recipes now published we had to start dividing our recipe page up (for us as well as you!).

No recipe here for this pate but you can find this and a dozen or so other tasty Spanish ideas for salsas, pate, chutney and a few fiery ones for the chilli fans:)
