How to Pick the Right Tinned Fish for YOU!
Sardines, herring, oysters, shrimp- the Polar world of Tnned fish is expansive, and this guide is here to help you decide what to try first!
The Best Tins for Absolute Beginners

Our Kipper Snacks are a smoky herring fillet that is presented in the can just like a butteflied fish that you'd expect at a restaurant. The fish flavor profile is mild smoky like jerky, and tastes great with a squeeze of lemon and your favorite hot sauce. Kipper snacks are a great beginner tin because they are at an affordable price point, are boneless, and are the perfect portion for one person. As always, our tinned fish is pre-cooked and ready to eat out of the can!

Polar Smoked and Peppered Herring:

Our Smoked and Peppered herring is a fillet that is larger than our Kipper snacks. Its smoky and peppery flavor means the fish flavor is mild. The natural pepper makes it exceptionally easy to enjoy with a side of rice or on a cracker. Our Peppered herring is a great option for beginners because it is boneless, perfectly seasoned, and extremely similar to a herring that would be served to you in a restaurant. As always, our tinned fish is pre-cooked and ready to eat out of the can!

If you like shrimp, Polar Tiny Shrimp is the perfect tin for you. Wild-caught and from deep, cold seas, you can taste the freshness with each bite. Easily toss it in your favorite sauce or in a seafood salad after draining for a delicious snack. This tin is great for beginners because it is peeled, deveined, and the same shrimp flavor you love in a convenient package. As always, our tinned fish is pre-cooked and ready to eat out of the can!

Brisling Sardines Smoked in Olive Oil | Glass Jar

Ready to try sardines? Polar Sardines in the Glass Jar have no head and no tail, making them perfect for those apprehensive to try a sardine with a tail, like our canned sardines, for example. Brisling Sardines are a species that are small, making them bite-sized and approachable. While these sardines do have bones, they are so small and delicate that you do not notice them when you are eating. Polar Brisling Sardines are perfect for beginners because they have a smokiness that makes the fish flavor mild; they are packed in olive oil, which offers a firm bite, and the resealable jar means you don't have to commit to eating a full serving in one sitting.
