Not everyone loves anchovies and mostly because if they try some on something like pizza it is almost always those lousy tinned ones from Morocco (although I have been to a pizzeria where the used top quality anchovies from Sicily but they cost ). I love anchovies , love em on pizza (not every pie I eat) and love them on Caesar Salad made in my home and sometimes sauteed in pan when making some dish or another where they melt away and impart that intense umami flavor in the end dish.These anchovies are among the best you can get to buy here but you need to work for them if you want to enjoy them. Anchovy fillet for fillet they are super tasty after you thoroughly clean them and rinse them several times in changes of water or use milk. After my first purchase I am pretty good at cleaning the whole anchovy and getting 2 lovely fillets. 30 minutes rinse time (changing water 3 times) and drying completely and YUMMY.When my package arrived today I immediately opened and picked out about 10 fishes , many a really nice size and then packed the remainder of tin in a Ball jar with the salt content from tin covering the anchovies and these babies will last over a year in fridge,maybe longer as long as salt covered fully. Shipper sent out tins best by sometime in 2020 so superb freshness too.Keep in mind while tin is 800 grams your actual fish content is way less at 600 grams which gets reduced even greater once each fish is cleaned fully but quality is there. So unless youre lazy or dont care about cost these are a great buy for any anchovy lover.!!!!!
