How to Enjoy Sea Sisters: A Guide to British Craft Conservas

Sea Sisters' British conservas turn simple moments into something special. These handcrafted tinned seafood from Dorset are made for what founders Charlotte and Angus call the "Golden Hour" – those moments of unwinding with good food and drink. Here's a few of our favourites and how we suggest enjoying them on your next Golden Hour!

The Conservas

Cornish Hake with Rosemary & Capers features tender hake in herb-infused olive oil with rosemary, garlic, and capers. Simply serve on warm crusty bread with the oil, or toss with pasta and rocket for a quick supper. It pairs well with Pattingham Vineyard Sparkling White – the wine's acidity cuts through the oil whilst the bubbles lift the herbs.

Rainbow Trout Smoked Over Oak has a gentle smoky flavour that's not overpowering. Add to scrambled eggs with chives for breakfast, or serve on biscuits with cream cheese as canapés. Enjoy with a coffee from our friends at Cuffed in Coffee.

Norfolk Whelks with Chilli & Garlic offer a mild seafood flavour with a gentle heat from the chilli. Serve on crusty bread with a squeeze of lemon for a seaside snack, or toss with pasta and fresh herbs for a quick supper. Pair with a crisp pint from our friends at Adnams Brewery.

Present the conservas properly to make the most of them. Use decent plates and small spoons for the oils – they're part of the experience. Open tins carefully and provide good bread or quality biscuits. Proper presentation makes a difference.

Father's Day Gift

Sea Sisters conservas make a great Father's Day gift. They're gourmet food that's ready in minutes - perfect for busy fathers who still want to eat well. The British heritage adds meaning, supporting local producers and sustainable fishing.

Put together a hamper with Sea Sisters conservas, Pattingham Vineyard Sparkling White or some of our speciality roasted coffee beans. Add a note about taking time for "Golden Hour" moments. It's not just food - it's an invitation to slow down and enjoy quality.

Wine Pairing

Pattingham Vineyard Sparkling White works well with Sea Sisters conservas. The English sparkling wine's acidity and bubbles complement both the herb oils and smoky flavours, showcasing British craftsmanship.

Other Uses

Add conservas to pasta dishes, salads, or cheese boards. They work in sandwiches or as part of entertaining spreads. Treat them as quality ingredients that deserve proper handling.

Sea Sisters conservas show that good experiences don't need complicated preparation. Sometimes the best moments come from simple things: quality food, good drink, and time to appreciate them. Whether for Father's Day or your own Golden Hour, these conservas make ordinary occasions feel special. Shop the full Sea Sisters range here!
