About Anchois

Anchois, or anchovies, are small, salt-cured fish commonly used in Mediterranean cuisine and beyond. Known for their intense umami flavor, they are often used as a savory topping for pizzas, salads, or incorporated into sauces like tapenade or Caesar dressing. Anchovies are an excellent source of protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential vitamins such as B12, niacin, and vitamin D, contributing to heart and brain health. They also contain calcium and iron, supporting bones and blood. However, their high sodium content due to curing should be consumed in moderation, especially for individuals managing sodium-restricted diets. Versatile and nutrient-rich, anchois are a flavorful addition to a balanced diet.
