I never age them as some of the French do, but that could be interesting to do some day.

tastes great, can only second the recommendation ^

Grilled, boiled new potatoes, fresh green salad. Preferably from a cafe where you can see the Tagus. So good that it I had had to be coaxed into not having them for lunch once during a week in Lisbon.

Grilled sardines in Portugal are delicious, but I grew up eating Club Des Billionaires ("Fish she is very small") sardines in oil right out of the can. Can of sardines + fork = happy Scarlet. Remaining sardine oil = happy cats.

Love the idea of having them grilled :cool:

We have Hooligan in Alaska (smelt) and can catch them by the netfull... when they are in - can get a couple hundred if not a thousand in a couple hours... My dad smoked a batch of them and they are amazing... most recently threw them in an omelet ^

I watched an episode of Chopped recently that featured fresh sardines. It certainly made me want to try them. Of course as it was Chopped, there was also unsweetened chocolate as an ingredient :D

The eye of the beholder (or the standards of the processing plant).

Look at it this way....

One lady may be convinced you're an anchovy, a second that you're a sardine, but another may feel that you're a kingfish.
