The Cantabrian Sea's Anchovy Fillets: A Unique Delicacy

Anchovies, a small fish like the Alice, can unleash an intense and fragrant flavor, as evidenced by the Anchovy Fillets from the Cantabrian Sea. These fillets, strictly handmade, undergo a meticulous and patient production process, resulting in a product that meets modern tastes without sacrificing quality, and bringing the scent of the sea to the table.

Sourced exclusively from the Cantabrian Sea, the anchovies are fished during the period from the end of March to the beginning of July, when they are at their meatiest. The fillets, thicker and tastier than their counterparts, are characterized by a pinkish color that turns to a tobacco hue and a larger size.

The production process is a true testament to the industriousness of entire generations of fishermen. The anchovies are placed in an oak container, the "terzigno" (one-third of a barrel), arranged in alternating layers of salt and fish. Once the layers are complete, a wooden disk (called a "tompagno") is placed on top, and weighted down with sea stones.

This meticulous and patient maturation process, lasting no less than 8 months, ensures that the meat reaches the perfect level of firmness and taste. Only then are the anchovies packaged in olive oil, preserving the authentic flavors and respecting the traditions that have been passed down through the generations.

The unique flavor and production process have made these Anchovy Fillets a symbol of the Cantabrian Sea's gastronomic excellence. They can be enjoyed in a variety of ways, from seasoning spaghetti or linguine al dente, to flavoring fish or vegetable dishes, or even as a tasty topping for sandwiches and eggs.

Certified as handmade, protein-rich, GMO-free, Kosher, and MSC certified, these Anchovy Fillets are a true testament to the dedication and craftsmanship of the Cantabrian Sea's fishermen. The result is an authentic and high-quality product that delights the senses with its delicate flavor and typical consistency, perfect for aperitifs or a light and balanced dinner.
