These anchovies are something else. The fillets are fleshy, not dried up in salt like most of the anchovies I have eaten before. The consistency of the meat is preserved very well. While most anchovies are salty with the characteristic, wonderful ... stink, these anchovies are also flavorful in addition to being only stinky. I am not sure how this is done - perhaps by shortening the time the fish is cured in salt? The price is unjustifiably high though - one can get 2 lbs of Moroccan anchovies for the same price.
Nevertheless, these are (from far) the best anchovies I tried.
Product Description
These silky, tender whole fillets packed in olive oil put to shame the mushy anchovies you get at the supermarket. What sets these anchovies apart from all others is the curing tradition of the Basque region that goes back for generations. Unlike other strong flavored varieties, these little white anchovies are salted, washed in clear water and individually packed by hand in olive oil. You won't find a higher quality anchovy anywhere
