Salt-Cured Anchovies from the Ligurian Sea in Genova

They are fresh anchovies, cleaned by hand and arranged in alternating layers with coarse salt. Preservation happens slowly, without cooking, allowing the fish to mature over time. The flesh becomes firm, savory, and fragrant with the scent of the sea. It is an essential preparation, designed to last and to be used with care.
