Anchovy Paste

Anchovy Paste

Everyday

Anchovy paste is a concentrated condiment made from ground anchovies that have been cured in salt and processed into a smooth, spreadable form. This intensely savory ingredient provides a powerful umami flavor while being rich in omega-3 fatty acids and protein, though it should be used sparingly due to its high sodium content. The paste serves as a foundational flavoring in many Mediterranean dishes and classic sauces, where it adds depth without necessarily contributing a fishy taste.
