Matiz España Wild Cockles, 4 oz, Size 45/55, Pack of 1 | Galicia, Spain, Natural Sea Salt Brine, Spanish Berberechos, Small Clams, Hand Packed

Absolutely delicious!!! Probably my favorite tinned seafood ever! No offputtin smells or tastes, no fishyness.Great texture. Chewy but in a good way. I will order these continuously. It is most definitely something I could eat daily . Im definitely going stick with Matiz. After Im finished with this Im headed to their page on here to try some other stuff. 🍻

I love eating unusual and exotic foods. And this is a good example. Great presentation from the label to the open can. I was not expecting such colorful contents. The way each one is delicately packed with care tells me that the Matiz Company really cares about their name and their product. Upon opening the can you will get a waft of seafood odor. Not so pleasant to some, but to a seafood aficionado, it calls to the senses. Even seems to bring one closer to the seashore even if that shore is hours away. I was expecting the typical dark smokey oyster appearance, but no so. These appear just as if they had been shucked moments ago. As for taste, they are heavily on the steamed clam level. As for texture, they are chewy. Not mushy or pasty at all. They would likely go very well with a salmon or whitefish dip on crackers. But for those who must have that burst of sea creature impact, then consume them as is with a toothpick. They are rather expensive, so share your can with others... so all can have part of the experience. Watch the video to get a much better explanation. Hope this helps.

The texture and flavor are amazing! The liquid in the can was so good that I dipped buttered bread in it as I ate the clams. There was a good amount of clams in the tin. For what they cost, though, I would have expected much less sandy grit that was in many of them. Overall, though, very good and I may get some of these again sometime.

I've never had cockles so I wasn't sure what to expect. They were a bit salty from the brine and deliciously mild flavored and tender. I had mine over rice with kewpie, sambal, furikake, some microgreens, and a scoop of crab salad. Separately or mixed into the pile of other ingredients, they were subtle and very tasty. I ate the rest of the can without any adornment and they were still great.

Very happy with the product I received. I love trying new and interesting foods. I am impressed with the salt brine. It tasted so fresh and salty. Just like ocean water. If you like oysters you know what I mean. The only thing I wish I would have done was chilled the can for a day before I opened them.

Taste good extremely salty

If you like the taste of fresh shellfish, specifically oysters, or a powerful taste of muscles, this is for you. I ate them drained and fresh out of the can.I could see how these would be phenomenal tossed in from fresh pasta with olive oil and freshly cracked black pepper.The only thing I wasn’t a terribly large fan about is, there seems to be a an extremely fine particulate trapped in a small amount. This being my first time eating them, I didn’t know if that was normal. Nonetheless- I will absolutely be buying them again.

Flavor was not there, and it was full of sand
