Don Battista's Anchovy Fillets in sunflower oil
Extraordinary quality, sweetness and flavor distinguish the Cantabrian Anchovy fillets. Tender and tasty anchovy fillets processed and selected with care and in an artisanal way.
Caught in the Cantabrian Sea between northern Spain and south-western France, Cantabrian Anchovies are the most prized and sought-after anchovies by connoisseurs. The cold waters of the Atlantic Ocean and the good oxygenation ensure that these anchovies have an inimitable taste thanks to a thicker layer of fat and larger dimensions.
The Cantabrian Anchovies, despite being Spanish, are linked to our Sicilian tradition as it was a Sicilian from Trapani, Giovanni Vella Scatagliota, who discovered and appreciated their quality. Before then, in fact, Spanish fishermen threw the caught anchovies back into the sea or used them as bait for more valuable fish.
