100 Years

COMMEMORATIVE VATEL’S 100 YEARS PACKAGES

AROUSING FLAVOURS FOR 100 YEARS

: In the last 105 yeasts, the iconic company Vatel has had a constant role in the Portuguese household. Present in our youth memories, reaching across multiple generations and maintaining to this day as a source of trust, Vatel has been for over 100 years arousing flavours, and continues to add more flavour to our own history. In the year when it celebrate its centenary (2015), Vatel, the leading company in the Portuguese salt market, challenged one of the more respected Portuguese chefs, Chef Justa Nobre, to create a recipe to accompany such a unique event. This is how the magnificent Sea bass baked on Salt with Rosé sauce, sweet potato with shallots and vegetables ‘trouxa’ is created.

A fervent proponent of traditional cooking, Chef believes in aiming to daily overcome any obstacles and continuous evolution. “Vatel is a brand that I have been raised alongside. Since I was young I remember Vatel’s salt in our kitchen. Since it is the salt that I use for cooking, and knowing many of the brand’s products, it was easy to create a recipe. The main benefits of this recipe are the raw ingredients used. Eating fish (sea bass), besides being an easy to digest dish, enhances memory, focus, helps with cardiovascular diseases and increases anti-inflammatory reactions in the organism, because fish is rich in omega 3. And when you talk about fish you are always relating to salt, an essential ingredient in its cooking.”
