The octopus is one of the star cephalopods of Galicia. It is a typical product in our gastronomy that enjoys a special prestige. The process of preparation is manual and the final packaging is added olive oil to intensify its qualities and maintain its appreciated taste.
Galicia is famous for its pulpo, or Galician octopus. It is often served hot, sprinkled with a touch of smoked paprika. At Ultramarinos, however, we eat them right out of the can.
The seas off the coast of Galicia in Northwest Spain are cool and rich in nutrients, making them an incredible fishing ground. Conservas de Cambados is located close to one of Spain’s largest RÃas (estuaries), known as the ‘RÃa de Arousa’. Their facilities are very close to where the seafood is harvested, so they are able to use the freshest octopus and shellfish available.
