Oysters that delicacy that lasts throughout time, from Roman times to the present.

At that time they were consumed in large quantities and even those that grew naturally were exploited. Proof of this was the Huerta Varona deposit in Aguilar de Campoo where large quantities of oyster shells were found.

fermented fish chunks.

Currently, large quantities are grown in rafts in towns such as Arcade, in the Vigo estuary. Many of them end up on "Pescadería Street", also popularly known as "Ostras Street". Where there is a tradition of selling them there and later cooking or serving them in nearby restaurants that each vendor has arranged. Well, in addition to eating them raw with lemon or they can also be cooked in breadcrumbs and served on skewers ...
