Olasagasti Garlic Anchovies 190g

A rich, traditional delicacy straight from the Basque Country, Olasagasti Anchovies a la Donostiarra celebrates the pristine flavour of whole anchovies sourced from the waters off San Sebastián. This recipe, meaning "in the style of San Sebastián," is a testament to the artisan fish preservation heritage brought to Cantabria by an Italian fishing family in the 1920s. Whole, high-quality anchovies are carefully preserved by lightly frying them in premium olive oil with fragrant fresh garlic and a delicate touch of cayenne pepper, resulting in tender, intensely aromatic seafood infused with warmth and a subtle, non-overpowering spice.

Deliciously versatile, these traditional preparations are ready to be served and capture the essence of Spanish tapas culture. Enjoy them straight from the tin, or elevate a simple appetizer by serving them piled atop crusty bread, ensuring you generously drizzle the infused, flavourful olive oil over the top. They are perfect for sharing on a charcuterie board alongside cheeses and olives, or they can be gently warmed and added to a simple pasta dish for an authentic, gourmet seafood experience.
