Fresh Whole Sardines

Small, silver and full of flavour. These arrive whole and glistening, with bright eyes and tight scales, exactly the way good fish should look.

Highlights

• Clean silver sheen and tight scales, a clear sign of freshness
• Naturally high in protein and omega-3
• Sorted to a consistent size so they cook evenly
• No filleting required, straight to the pan

In the pack

2 kg, cleaned, sorted and packed on ice.

How to cook it

Rinse, pat dry and score the sides. Grill over high heat for 3 to 4 minutes a side, or bake at 200C for about 12 minutes. Olive oil, garlic, parsley and a squeeze of lemon is all they need. They also take well to a light dusting of flour and a hot pan until crisp.

Storage

Keep at 0 to 4C and cook within 1 to 2 days for the best flavour, or freeze on arrival for up to 3 months.
