Product Description

The anchovy is a small, bony, schooling fish that lives in the warm waters of the South Atlantic. Imported from Spain, these hand-filleted flat anchovies are perfect for antipasto and salads. Not overly salted like some others we have experienced, Ortiz brand anchovies have a superbly balanced flavor and a subdued aroma.

Customer Reviews

Tasty!
These are not your average anchovy in a can -- these are wonderful! They truely add flavor to tomato sauce, tomato soup, salad, .... they just melt into the food. People wonder why my food is better than theirs -- it's probably the addition of these anchovies! (I even use the olive oil in the bottom of the jar after the anchovies are used up. Really wonderful!) They come with a little fork, which makes them easy to remove from the jar, and I have several forks now. What do you do with them after a while? They are cheaper from my local store, though. They do not require refrigeration -- I just keep mine on the counter -- even after it's been opened. However, I live in the NE, so maybe in the South you might need to be wary of temps.

Very overpriced, especially without the fork
This product arrived without the fork or any signs that there had ever been a fork attached to the product. The seller also failed to note it was shipping in a cool pack box--apparently it needs refrigeration. I ordered it for an APO address, and someone should have noticed and contacted me or noted the perishability of the product in the advertizement.
