Rolled Anchovy Fillets in Olive Oil with Capers by Delicius

You will be hooked from the first bite! Capers and Anchovies complement each other perfectly! Delicius uses their biggest anchovies - totally sourced from the Mediterranean Sea and of Engraulis encrasicholus species only. Nowadays, as back in the past, they are fished when the nights are deep dark (moonless) starting from March through September using a traditional fishing boat fitted with a "Lampara net", thus respecting the sea and the sea bed. They are carefully cured and filleted. Then rolled around a caper in the Sicilian tradition. Delicius capers belong to the Capparis spinosa species known for its intense and aromatic taste, which makes the combination with their anchovies unique. It’s a labor-intensive, hand-made process, according to the old-style Italian making. Then these rolls are packed in "olea mediterranea", a light and gentle oil that does not overshadow the taste of these anchovies and capers, but actually accompanies and preserves their extraordinary flavor.Delicius was founded in Parma, Italy in 1972. Ever since, it has been developing, producing and marketing preserved fish. Simplicity and freshness has always been their ethos. Delicius decided to produce close to fishing spots (in this case, just across from the Italian heel, on the coast of Albania), shortening the time between hauling in the nets and processing so they get the best quality. Delicius' care for the best catch of the day, for traditional salting and filleting practices remain typically Italian.
