Origin of raw materials
The chutneys in the PACK 3 Flavors Ideal for Sushi & Fish are born from authentic, carefully selected ingredients that represent the best of Portuguese and island agriculture. Each fruit and spice reveals the essence of its origin — from the volcanic soils of the Azores and Madeira to the fertile lands of the North — resulting in combinations that balance freshness, sweetness, and intensity. These origins tell stories, transforming simple accompaniments into remarkable gastronomic experiences.
Azores Pineapple PDO
Azores Pineapple PDO is an agricultural jewel exclusive to São Miguel Island. Grown in glass greenhouses known as “pineapple houses,” this fruit is produced using traditional methods that respect local time and climate. Over nearly two years, cultivation is guided by artisanal techniques — such as “vegetable smokes” — that stimulate growth and intensify aroma. The result is a pineapple with a soft, juicy texture, balanced acidity, and an unmistakable tropical fragrance. Introduced in the 19th century, it became a symbol of Azorean agricultural excellence, recognized worldwide for its unique quality.
Mango from Madeira Island
Madeira mango thrives in a unique environment shaped by the island’s mild climate and volcanic soils. The subtropical temperatures and ocean influence allow for slow ripening, resulting in aromatic, tender, and intensely sweet mangoes. Its golden, juicy pulp gives the chutney a naturally smooth and exotic touch, harmoniously complementing the delicate flavors of fish and seafood. This ingredient reflects the vibrant and fruity character of Madeira, bringing the island’s freshness to every dish.
Red Pepper from Póvoa de Varzim
Known for its strong agricultural tradition, the Póvoa de Varzim region stands out for producing vegetables of exceptional quality. The red pepper from this area is prized for its thick flesh, sweet flavor, and vivid color. The Atlantic climate and fertile soils give it characteristic freshness and a balanced aromatic profile, making it a versatile and essential ingredient in Portuguese cuisine. In this chutney, it provides a creamy base and a slightly smoky note, pairing perfectly with grilled fish and richly flavored sushi.
Chili Pepper
Chili pepper adds personality and energy to this pack, delivering the spicy touch that awakens the senses and enhances the contrasts of flavor. Its natural heat intensifies the pleasure of tasting, balancing beautifully with the tropical sweetness of the fruits. Rich in aroma and color, it brings excitement and depth to culinary creations, enhancing the experience without overpowering other ingredients. In sushi and fish dishes, it elevates the flavor profile and brings a lively kick that surprises with every bite.
Together, these ingredients represent the meeting point between the Atlantic, the Mediterranean, and the tropics. They reflect Portuguese authenticity and creativity, where agricultural tradition and culinary innovation unite to offer intense, fresh, and harmonious flavors — ideal for transforming any fish or sushi dish into a true celebration of taste.
