What Are Anchovies?
While anchovies have been a fixture in various cuisines, especially those of the Mediterranean, there remains a certain amount of confusion around these tasty little fish. Intensely fishy, salty, and flavorful, anchovies can be found anywhere from the Mediterranean to as far north as Scandinavia. Salt-cured anchovy filets are generally packed in oil or marinated in a combination of seasonings and vinegar. Wonderfully versatile, a single fillet can make a world of difference in a wide range of dishes, buoying up the flavors and adding depth and complexity.
Anchovies vs sardines
While anchovies and sardines are worlds apart in an abundance of ways, you’ll often find the two confused. Perhaps because they are both relatively small oily fish. Or perhaps because they both generally come packed in tins and are often resting side-by-side on supermarket shelves. There are a couple of easy ways to tell the two apart and ensure you’re getting the fish you’re really after.
When the tins are opened, the difference between the two fishes is obvious. Sardines are visibly larger than the tiny anchovy, and the color of their flesh is a pale silvery-white color. Anchovies, in contrast, have dark reddish-grey flesh thanks to the salt-curing process that preserves them. If you’re still stumped on which fish your recipe needs, taste them! Sardines have a milder flavor, light and slightly briny, while anchovies offer an aggressive burst of umami, perfect for infusing dishes with deep savory flavor!
