Discover the exquisite taste of Agostino Recca’s Whole Anchovies in Salt, imported directly from the picturesque Sciacca region in Sicily. Renowned for quality, flavor, and tradition, the Recca family has established itself as a trusted source for anchovies in the United States.

What sets these Sicilian anchovies apart is their preparation. Whole salted fillets are carefully packed in salt alongside a subtle touch of brine. While it's true that these anchovies require some extra effort to prepare—removing the backbone and tail—the results are undeniably rewarding. By soaking the de-boned anchovies in cold water for 15 to 20 minutes prior to use, you unlock an unparalleled flavor profile that many enthusiasts describe as out of this world.

Interestingly, many have noticed that these anchovies tend to be less salty than their oil-packed counterparts, making them a delicious addition to a variety of dishes without overwhelming them with saltiness.

To ensure the freshness of your anchovies, it’s advisable to store any remaining fillets in an airtight container along with their salt after opening the can. Keep them in the refrigerator, where they can last indefinitely, allowing you to enjoy the rich flavors of Sicilian anchovies whenever the desire strikes.

Make sure to experience the authentic taste of Sicilian anchovies that Agostino Recca provides. Perfect for enhancing pastas, salads, pizzas, and more, these whole anchovies in salt offer a unique culinary adventure you're sure to appreciate.
