The gilda: history of a legendary pintxo
The gilda was created in the 1940s at Bar Casa Vallés in San Sebastián , named after Rita Hayworth because it was "green, salty, and a little spicy." Since then, it has become the most emblematic pintxo in the Basque Country .
Our version respects the original essence but elevates the ingredients: gourmet quality Cantabrian anchovies , carefully selected olives and Ibarra peppers with just the right amount of spice.
Three gildas, three personalities
Anchovy Gilda : The classic Basque dish. Cantabrian anchovy, olive, Ibarra pepper, and sun-dried tomato. Intense and addictive.
Gilda de Boquerón : A Mediterranean version with marinated anchovies, olives, chili peppers, and bell peppers. Milder and fresher.
Gilda de Queso : The surprise. Cured cheese, olive, chili pepper, and sun-dried tomato. Creamy and full of character.
The appetizer that always wins
Gildas are the perfect appetizer because everyone loves them and they require no preparation. Open the jar, serve with napkins, and let your guests help themselves.
They pair spectacularly with vermouth, txakoli, beer, or cava . They're the perfect start to any lunch or dinner, or the ideal accompaniment for an afternoon on the sofa with good conversation.
Handmade at the Ninot Market
Each gilda is assembled by hand at our stall in the Ninot Market (Barcelona). We don't use industrial or automated production; each toothpick receives the same attention and care.
The jars are prepared to order and shipped in refrigerated packaging to ensure they arrive at their freshest. It's like buying them directly from the market, but without leaving home.
