Product Description
Discover authentic Mediterranean taste and the tender quality of these anchovies. These Recca Anchovies from Sicily are are whole salted fillets packed in salt and a touch of brine. It is also important to note that these anchovies do require some extra work to remove the backbone and tail, but the extra work and time to soak these de-boned anchovies in cold water for 15-20 minutes before using, yields a flavor out of this world

 So Wonderful! January 9, 2010

These are different than any other anchovy I had ever tried. I first had tried then when I was in cooking school. I was just blown away! I know it sounds counter intuitive, but they are less salty and have much more depth of flavor. The can is quite large but you can keep them for about a year/year and a half. Once you open the can and have used the amount you need, just cover the top of the anchovies COMPLETELY with salt so you cannot see them. I then put a layer of plastic wrap then foil to seal. When using the anchovies, pull the number you need out of the can, soak them in water or milk for a few minutes to remove all of the salt. You will need to remove the fillets from the backbone. What you end up is an incredibly wonderful fillets. Use them in pasta sauce and everyone will ask you for the secret. Combine a few with melted butter, brush on crostini toasts then top with a little mild cheese. Your guests will gobble them up and ask for more. They will not know this is your secret ingredient.
Great Anchovies March 2, 2010

These anchovies are of great quality. They are packed in salt so you will need to soak them in milk or water to remove some of the excess saltiness. I used them last night to make caesar dressing. Great product!
 Like my mom use to use February 22, 2010

These were exactly what I was expecting. Growing up in a Greek traditional house my Mom had salted sardines at every major event. We would by 10 lbs at a time, rinse the salt and other things that naturally come along with it that we would not eat. In a glass jar soak them in apple cider vinegar for a couple of days in the fridge. Yum! The only disappointing thing is the price. I know my parents would not have spent $20 on 2 lbs. It is shocking how expensive they have become. I wish I could find them for less as I would order them more.
