Old Style recipe Anchovies
How we do it
Our Anchovies are classified by size, their heads are removed by hand and they are left to mature in barrels with salt and press for a minimum of 6 months. Once at their best, they are individually hand filleted and packed in olive oil. Perfect as an appetizer.
Once opened
Once opened, in order to maintain all its full flavor for up to five days, it is important to keep the anchovies in the refrigerator, preferably covered and submerged in olive oil, adding more if necessary. Refrigerated olive oil may be semi-solid, so take it out of the package for a few minutes at room temperature and it will become liquid.
Anchovies hold a special place of honor in the kitchen, not only because of their delicious flavor and versatility, but also because they have a number of unique properties:
- High biological value protein source.
- High content of OMEGA 3 fatty acids, which our body does not generate by itself.
- Rich in vitamins A, D, E and K, which help strengthen the immune system.
Our Old Style Anchovies are packed in olive oil, rich in oleic acid, which helps regulate harmful levels of cholesterol in the blood.
