Outstanding taste May 5, 2010
Cristian Ioan Tiu (Buffalo, NY USA)
These anchovies are packed whole in salt, meaning that in order to bring them to the looks of filleted anchovies you are used to, you will have to clean them yourself. Depending on skill, this process takes between 20 minutes to ... maybe 1.5 hours, so be prepared to work hard for your fish. The idea is to place them under running water (from your faucet). The skin will peel and when the water hits the fish around its fin area it will make the fillets part and you could easily extract the bones. This process requires a bit of skill which can be easily gained with repetition.
On the other hand, the taste is definitely at par with that of Ortiz anchovies, making the Agostino Recca anchovies the best in the world as well. The fish is fleshy and not overly dry, and the flavor is interesting without being overpowering. The "fishy" taste also survives the salting in these anchovies.
For those of you praising anchovies in salt, I would like to recall the fact that you have a choice of the olive oil to put them in - if you like extra virgin oil with the fishes you can have it! (most anchovies sold in oil would use a lighter, less pungent oil)
Given these considerations, I recommend these anchovies wholeheartedly, but you need to know that you have to work to get them!
