DON BOCARTE Cantabrian Anchovies

These world-class anchovies deserve to be enjoyed on their own. Plate them individually and garnish them in a dash of high quality extra virgin olive oil. Pair them with a piece of toasted bread (covered in butter as an option) and a high quality tomato puré.

This is a non-perishable product, so it will last for for quite some time! Keep stored in a cool and dry place and away from direct sunlight. Once you open it, and if you have some left, make sure to keep it tightly sealed and refrigerated. Also, make sure to not heat the tin up in the microwave.

Don Bocarte is a prestigious Spanish brand specializing in premium anchovy products sourced from the pristine waters of the Cantabrian Sea. With a steadfast commitment to traditional production methods and meticulous attention to detail, they have earned a reputation for delivering exceptional gourmet seafood. Renowned for their rich flavor, delicate texture, and unparalleled quality, Don Bocarte's seafood offerings are sought after by seafood connoisseurs and esteemed chefs worldwide.

Before these delicious Cantabrian anchovies can even be preserved, there are many steps to account for in advance. First, the anchovies must be preserved in vats of salt bins to cure them to absolute perfection–extracting the moisture from within to provide them with a delightful texture. Once they are removed from these bins of salt, each individual anchovy is deboned and cleaned by hand. One by one. This rigorous cleaning process ensures that each individual anchovy meets the quality standards of Don Bocarte and stays consistent from tin to tin. 

Once the anchovies are ready to be canned, they are packed uniformly into each tin to be presented beautifully. They are then preserved in premium extra virgin olive oil, rather than salt, to enhance their flavor profile out of the tin. This is a truly unique sign of quality, as these Cantabrian anchovies must be kept within refrigeration and become more delicate 

The result? A deliciously tender and meaty anchovy that’s smooth in texture and rich in flavor. We can assure you you have never had a tinned anchovy quite like this. The same quality standards Don Bocarte presents for their anchovies, they do for the rest of their tinned fish.
