Sourcing

Bela Sardines are wild-caught sardine fillets, hand packed in spring water or organic extra virgin olive oil. Every one is a full fillet, with no heads, tails or chopped pieces. Bela sources its sardines exclusively from the Cornish Sardine Fishery, and they are MSC certified and kosher. The fish is Sardina pilchardus, the European species that the FAO and WHO treat as a true sardine. Serve them as an appetizer or a quick snack.
