Wild PlanetWild White Anchovies in Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Tinned Fish, 4.4 Ounce, Pack of 12

These are fabulous! Also, they ARE anchovies, but folks are getting them confused with the salted anchovy fillets that are used on caesar salads and pizzas. Some reviewers have commented that these are sardines - they do look like tinned sardines, but sardines are much larger. These anchovies are packed in water and are wonderful on top of a salad or in a sandwich. High in protein too! Yum!

These fresh anchovies are more nutritious and tastier than sardines (less slimy too). Can only give 5 stars, reordering.

If you are looking for the same anchovies that are served in Caeser salads at nice restaurants this is not the product you are looking for. These are sardines and taste exactly like sardines. If you are looking for a sardine these are great, but if you are looking for an "anchovie" flavor you will be disapointed.

I purchased these to see what they were. They're like sardines but with a better flavor, and are larger than canned sardines. I like them.

There are organic and absolutely delish! NOTE: these are nothing like the little bony semi-dried Italian anchovies like you'd put on pizza or use to make bagna cauda. Great on grainy European flat breads w/Dijon mustard.

These are larger than anchovies I am used to. And no where near as salty. Looks and tastes just like sardines.I was a bit nervous, about ordering them. That they would be too salty, and this is the first time I have ordered tinned fish in water/own juices. To be honest, these are great on salads, just like tuna. And, with the right dressing, I just dump the whole tin, fluids and meat, onto the salad. It really tastes much like tuna, but without the risk of higher mercury, and whatnot.Very good. I haven't tried them, technically, all on their own. But I did sample some of what I put on the salad separately. These taste just fine. I just don't trust "extra virgin olive oil" in tinned fish. And, that shouldn't be heated, anyway. Cold pressed is the only way to get the real stuff, so cooking it, with fish, in a tin, doesn't... seem like it would work out well. Very good.

Ordered wrong item. Did not know small whole anchovies do not taste like anchovy fillets at all. just like cans of sardines.

I recently tried Wild Planet White Anchovies and was pleasantly surprised by both their size and taste.**Size and Appearance:**When I first opened the can, I was surprised to find that these anchovies are sardine-sized. I was expecting the smaller, more traditional anchovy size, but the larger size actually made them more versatile in my cooking. Excellent for sardine sandwiches!**Taste and Texture:**The flavor is where these anchovies really shine. They have a lighter, milder taste compared to regular sardines, making them a great option for those who might find sardines too strong. The texture is firm yet tender, and they are packed in olive oil, which adds a nice richness without overpowering their natural flavor.**Versatility:**I've used them in salads, pasta dishes, and even on toast. Their lighter flavor means they blend well with other ingredients without being too dominant. They’ve added a delightful umami boost to everything I’ve tried them in.**Packaging:**The can is easy to open. The oil they are packed in is also of good quality, adding to the overall taste experience.**Overall:**I highly recommend Wild Planet White Anchovies for anyone looking to try a milder, more versatile fish. The unexpected size was a surprise, but their delicious, lighter flavor more than makes up for it. I will definitely be buying these again!
