Pasta Con Le Sarde – Small-Scale Fish, Big Flavor, Long Shelf-Life

I’m no survivalist, but similar whatever responsible chef I similar to bring a few cans of sardines stocked away, only inwards case. If times always larn tough, I could endure for hours, mayhap days on them; but since things are going pretty well, I decided to dust off a can, in addition to demo yous my version of Sicily’s famous, pasta con le sarde.

This volition operate good alongside many kinds of pasta, but I intend bucatini is the best. It’s hollow, which sucks inwards the sauce, in addition to flavors the noodles from the within out. And, there’s a lot of flavour to suck. Speaking of which, live certain to larn sardines that are packed inwards olive oil.

The flavour in addition to texture is going to live better, addition yous larn sardine-infused olive stone oil that comes packed alongside the fish, which makes a bully add-on to our sauce.  By the way, if yous can’t larn fresh fennel, yous tin shell upward a teaspoon of fennel seeds, in addition to brand a pretty decent version using that.

Like I said inwards the video, if yous tin larn fresh sardines, they’re amazing inwards this. Fresh sardines are mutual only about here, in addition to they are such a delicious in addition to under-appreciated fish. However, I honestly savor this version only equally well, in addition to seriously promise yous reach it a endeavour soon. Enjoy!
