Three Spanish Stars to Inspire Your Menus

We’re excited to share three very special new arrivals that celebrate the artistry and authenticity of Spain’s gastronomy. Whether you’re creating light summer dishes, planning autumn menus, or firing up the grill, these products bring the magic of Spain straight into your kitchen.

Carabineros
– The Scarlet Jewels of the Sea.

Famed for their deep red colour, unrivalled sweetness, and intensely flavoured heads, Carabineros are the prawns that chefs dream about! Wild-caught in the deep seas and best enjoyed with simple preparation, lightly grilled or pan-fried, they’re an unforgettable delicacy. We’re proud to be working with Congelados Basilio to source these responsibly, with a range of formats available to suit your menu.

Tapilla Ibérica
– Buttery, Tender, and Versatile.

From the revered Ibérico pig comes Tapilla – a beautifully marbled cut taken from the top of the rump. Rich, juicy, and full of flavour, Tapilla caramelises beautifully on the grill while remaining meltingly tender inside. Simple seasoning is all it needs. This is Spanish butchery at its very best.

Manchego Basque-Style Cheesecake
– A Bold Sweet Finish.

For dessert, nothing says indulgence quite like our Manchego Basque-Style Cheesecake. With its caramelised, almost blackened crust and silky, molten centre, this reimagined Spanish classic balances subtle sweetness with the nutty depth of Manchego cheese. A stunningly simple finale for any menu.

David Menéndez, Managing Director of Mevalco, puts it best:

“At Mevalco we’ve always championed the spirit and soul of Spanish food – honest ingredients, lovingly produced and full of flavour. With these new products, we want to give chefs the tools to create unforgettable dishes that capture the magic of Spain.”
