Anchovies in Oil: A Gourmet Delight!

These gourmet anchovies are first brined to enhance their natural taste, then carefully descaled and filleted by hand to ensure the highest quality. The result is a product with a robust, umami flavour that is both salty and slightly tangy, offering a powerful punch to any recipe. Their texture is firm yet tender, making them versatile for numerous culinary applications. Anchovies are a staple in Italian cooking, often used to impart a rich background flavour to sauces, dressings and various dishes. Whether you're enhancing a pasta sauce, adding complexity to a salad, or simply topping a pizza, these anchovies provide an unmatched burst of savoury goodness.

Anchovies in Oil Cooking Suggestions

  • Sautéing: Melt anchovies in a pan with garlic and olive oil to create a flavourful base for sauces.
  • Blending: Blend into salad dressings or marinades for a deep, savoury undertone.
  • Baking: Add to baked dishes like casseroles or gratins for an umami boost.
  • Simmering: Simmer in stews or soups to enrich the overall flavour.
  • Topping: Place whole fillets on pizzas, bruschetta or flatbreads for a salty, tangy topping.

Anchovies in Oil Serving Suggestions

  • Vegetables: Fresh tomatoes and basil! The sweetness of tomatoes and the freshness of basil balance the anchovies' saltiness.
  • Cheese: Mozzarella or burrata are the creamy cheeses that soften the anchovies' intense flavour.
  • Capers and Olives: Enhance the briny, umami profile in salads or antipasti.
  • Lemon Zest and Juice: Adds a bright, acidic contrast that lifts the anchovies' flavour.
  • Garlic and Chili Flakes: Combine with these for a spicy, aromatic pasta sauce.
  • Salads: Pair in salads with artichokes and roasted peppers or as a pizza topping for a Mediterranean twist.
  • Pasta: Integrate into a simple spaghetti aglio e olio for an elevated, savoury dish.
