These spiced sardines are special. Matiz left out the typical vinegar-y hot sauce and instead put whole dried piri-piri chilis into the tin. The peppers slowly marinate. lending a pleasantly spicy flavor to the sardines without overwhelming the tastebuds. Pro tip: the longer these tins are "aged" the better they taste. Over time the fish marinate in the chili oil, and become more flavorful and a little bit spicier. So stock up on a few cases and savor them throughout the year.
