Description
Ortiz Anchovies are carefully prepared and filleted, one by one, and are caught during the spring fishing season and freshly processed in order to maintain their full flavor.
They are then aged in barrels with salt for a minimum period of 6 months. Once at their best point of maturity, they are hand-filleted one at a time and then packed in olive oil or salted.
Anchovies from the Engraulis encrasicholus species are the most popular in the world. Thanks to this careful traditional preparation process, we get a premium anchovy with a compact flesh and rich flavor.
These Anchovies have an unmistakable flavor thanks to the way they are prepared, using a traditional process identical to that of anchovies in olive oil.
Salt is carefully cleaned from the Anchovies, they are hand filleted and the skin is left on their backs, which gives them an original flavor reminiscent of salted anchovies.
Once opened, in order to maintain all its full flavor for up to five days, it is important to keep the anchovies in the refrigerator, preferably covered and submerged in olive oil, adding more if necessary.
Anchovies hold a special place of honor in the kitchen, not only because of their delicious flavor and versatility, but also because they have a number of unique properties:
- Source of high biological value proteins.
- Natural source of OMEGA 3, which our body does not generate by itself. Rich in vitamins A, D, E and K, which help strengthen the immune system.
