About Biquerones

Boquerones, a Mediterranean delicacy, are fresh anchovies marinated in vinegar and olive oil, often seasoned with garlic and parsley. Popular in Spanish cuisine, they boast a tangy flavor and tender texture, making them a flavorful addition to tapas platters or salads. Rich in omega-3 fatty acids, boquerones promote heart and brain health, while providing high-quality protein essential for muscle repair and maintenance. They are also a good source of vitamins like B12, which supports energy production, and minerals such as calcium and iron. However, they can be high in sodium due to the curing process, so moderation is key, especially for those monitoring blood pressure. Enjoyed as a lean, nutrient-packed alternative to heavier protein options, boquerones are a nutritious staple of Mediterranean diets.
