Fayrefield Foods are set to launch a new super premium crisp from Spain in the UK – San Nicasio Patatas Fritas.
Hand made with extra virgin olive oil, Catalan potatoes and Himalayan pink salt, they are produced in the Córdoba mountain range in Andalucia, the centre of the olive growing region in Spain.
The distinctive pink bags are used in the best Spanish delicatessens, hotels and restaurants where they are famed for their high quality ingredients, unique taste and texture.
Created by four times gold medal winning Rafael del Rosal, the crisps are slow cooked in extra virgin oil from the first press of olives grown at nearby groves.
This extra virgin olive oil has “Priego de Córdoba” denomination of origin and is recognised as being amongst the best olive oils in the world.
San Nicasio also contains Himalayan pink salt which is rich in minerals and trace elements, its pink colour reflecting its high iron content.
San Nicasio have won four Gold awards from the Brussels World Selection of Quality in 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 and are a truly artisan product, explains Fayrefield Foods’ Mike Coleman.
