About Boquerones

Boquerones are fresh anchovies typically marinated in vinegar, olive oil, and spices, originating from Mediterranean cuisine, particularly Spain. Known for their delicate flavor and tender texture, boquerones are a staple in tapas culture, often served with bread, olives, or used as a topping. Nutritionally, they are an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart and brain health, and provide high-quality protein to aid muscle repair and growth. Rich in essential vitamins and minerals like B vitamins, iron, and calcium, boquerones contribute to overall well-being. However, they can be higher in sodium due to the marination process, so portion control is key for those watching salt intake. Their preparation in olive oil adds healthy monounsaturated fats, making boquerones a flavorful and nutritious choice for seafood lovers.
