Meaty yet delicately textured whole-fillet Spanish anchovies from the Cantabrian Sea.
Processing anchovies in the Cantabria region of Spain is still a traditional art. Anchovies caught in the Cantabrian sea are hand-packed, gutted, and placed in barrels with salt, where they mature for 3-7 months. After that time, they are washed, de-boned, and packaged in tins with olive oil at the Arroyabe family cannery in the Basque region of Spain.
Use anchovies as a source of savory “umami” flavor in your dishes – toss with pasta, mix into sauces, or serve on top of salads. Anchovies are high in omega-3 fatty acids which help in the prevention of cardiovascular disease and reduce cholesterol. They are also rich in iodine, calcium, vitamins a, d, b12, b6, b2 and unsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic acid.
