Anchovy Salad

 

Anchovy Salad (Alici Salate)

There is a lot of talk about the health benefits of anchovies and sardines, but not many details about how to source them except in a can soaked in preservatives.  Just use simple foods, the anchovies and sea salt that come as two ingredients in a glass jar. Anchovies that are raw and cured in the beautiful Mediterranean sun with sea salt.  This makes a most delicious anchovy salad with a powerful dose of healthy, oily fish.

Raw salted wild anchovies, rinsed well and split in halves
1/4 organic red onion, sliced
1 organic cucumber, sliced
a bunch of organic chives

Arrange everything on a plate and serve immediately with or without your favorite crackers.  A simple dish that is very well ntritionally balanced.
