3 years ago, Spanish Pig opened its doors in Toronto 🇪🇸

But the story started long before that.

It started with family, Spanish flavours, rituals around the table, and one simple question:

Would people in Canada care about authentic Spanish food the way we did?

The answer came through every order, every visit, every conversation, and every person who chose real Spanish products for their table.

What began as a small passion project became a home for discovery, connection, and a little piece of Spain in Toronto.

This year, receiving the Colmados From Spain certification made the journey even more meaningful: a recognition for stores that authentically represent Spanish products abroad. 🏅

Thank you for making year 3 unforgettable.

Every visit, every order, every recommendation, and every shared table helped build this story.

Come visit us and be part of what comes next. 🍷

Avoid this mistake when trying Spanish tinned fish.

If you dive straight into bold flavors like sea urchin roe, the intense umami might completely overwhelm your palate.

You should start with something milder like mussels to get comfortable with the textures first. Once you adjust, you can confidently explore those complex and exciting new bites. 🥫

Save this for your next store visit.

Stop eating cold Iberico ham straight from the fridge.

You need to let it reach room temperature before serving to unlock the real flavor. Just run the sealed pack under warm water until the fat turns completely transparent.

This simple trick softens the fat and opens up the incredible aroma you paid for.

I never imagined that opening a Spanish shop in Canada would one day lead me to meet a King. But last week, it did.

Spanish Pig has officially been certified as a Colmado From Spain:

A recognition for stores that truly represent authentic Spanish products around the world.

There are very few in Canada, so this means a lot.

I started Spanish Pig to bring the Spain I know and love to Canada: real flavour, real tradition, and products made with care.

Thank you for being part of this journey.

Stop thinking of it as just “ham.” 🇪🇸

We traveled to the heart of Extremadura to visit our partners at , and what we found wasn't a factory, it was an ecosystem.

From the wide-open dehesas where the pigs roam free and feast on acorns, to the quiet, salt-scented curing rooms where time is the only master, every slice tells a story of patience.

Most people look for shortcuts. Extrem looks for perfection. The result? A texture that doesn't just melt, it lingers.

Can you taste the difference between a premium $15 tin and a budget tin? 🤔

When it comes to Spanish conservas, you can often spot the difference in the clarity of the olive oil, the size of the fish, and that signature melt-in-your-mouth texture.

Stop ruining your conservas! 🛑

Here is the ultimate Spanish pairing guide.

Eating premium tinned seafood is an experience, and the right drink takes it to a whole new level.

Here are three foolproof pairings to elevate your next tapas night:

✨ Cockles + Txakoli: The slight salinity of the crisp Basque wine perfectly balances the cockles.
✨ Mussels in Escabeche + Spanish Vermouth: The herbal, slightly bitter notes of the vermouth lift up the rich escabeche sauce.
✨ Scallops + Asturian Cider: The bright, bubbly cider cuts through the rich chili and garlic oil.

Which pairing are you trying first? 🥂

Your appetizer spread is about to get a major upgrade.

1: Romesco sauce, boqueron, Cantabrian anchovy, and paprika pearls 🐟
2: Chorizo Ibérico and a guindilla pepper
3: Grated tomato, olive oil, Manchego cheese, and a piquillo pepper 🧀

Which one are you grabbing first?
