Acciughe Marinate - Italian Recipe

Acciughe Marinate

🌍 Italian, Liguria Difficulty: ●●●○○

Fresh anchovies cured in lemon juice and vinegar along the Ligurian coast. The fillets must be completely fresh — fresh anchovies smell of the sea, not of fish. The acid does the work of cooking; four hours in the marinade firms the flesh to opacity.

Ingredients

• 400g fresh anchovies, cleaned
• Juice of 4 lemons
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• Garlic, parsley, chilli

Method

1. Covering — Cover anchovies in lemon juice; marinate 4 hours until "cooked" (ceviche method).
2. Draining — Drain; dress with oil, garlic, parsley, chilli.
