There’s no two ways about it: canned fish is having a moment. And it’s not hard to understand why. There’s the cool, retro-nostalgic packaging. The fact that it lasts forever in the pantry, is so versatile, so ready and able for your next desk lunch. And the fact that it’s so very tasty, really bringing the umami factor. And then finally, there’s the new-found variety!

Gone are the days when your choices were limited to sardines or tuna. (Not that we’re turning up our noses at either). These days, there’s a whole school of canned fish to choose from, from smoked sardines to grilled mackerel, tuna loins to grilled salmon steaks and even cured cod! With that in mind, we’ve tried out 3 delicious canned fish-on-toast recipes – ideal for a quick snack or a snazzy work from home lunch.
