And wouldn't the ingredients you picked beforehand be of better quality? Or is there a canned marination that occurs that I'm not aware of? Tomato sauce seems to somehow help with conservation of the fish.

Answered your own question. hot peppers in oil and oily fish infuses every molecule of sardine with hot pepper flavor. That's not something you can get with a bottle of hot sauce. Same's true of 'dines in hot sauce and 'dines in mustard. Also, 'dine mustard and 'dine hot sauce ain't, like, normal condiments, they are special mustards and hot sauces.

Mustard, chili sauce, or tomato didn't do much for me. Olive Oil gives you a nice neutral base to work with

Lucy Heartfilia posted:Tomato sauce seems to somehow help with conservation of the fish. The fertilizer used on tomatoes is a an aphrodisiac to sardines. It leeches into the ocean and accelerates their reproductive cycle. So tomatoes in sardines doesn't directly help with conservation, but the tomato industry does.

Olive Oil gives you a nice neutral base to work with I'll have to try it, but my assumption was that having a cannery add a sauce (other than olive oil) is just a way to perk up lower-quality 'dines.

Checking in to report that Crown Prince kipper snacks mixed with Japanese mayo and sriracha makes an amazing filling for sushi hand rolls. I made them with the kipper\spicy mayo mixture, slivers of cucumber, enoki mushrooms, and the requisite sticky rice, and it tasted just like a restaurant salmon-skin handroll. gently caress yeah.

I have purchased three tins of sardines but have not consumed any yet. I'm afraid that I will have a bad first impression by either eating a bad example or a bad application of the dudes. I have: Bela Portuguese sardines in tomato sauce Bumblebee in mustard Beach Cliff in oil I'm thinking of sautéing some garlic and then adding some chopped tomatoes and red wine vinegar, then adding the Belas and mashing that poo poo up. Mash up avocado and spread that on Triscuits, and put the sardine mixture on top. Kind of a half assed version of Alton Brown's recipe. I think maybe doing the Bumblebee or the Beach Cliff straight up on a cracker might be a bad idea as an introduction to the world of our undersea friend. Report: Bela brand sardines are wonderful. Had one on a Triscuit with hot sauce. Beach Cliff mixed with sauteed garlic and tomato on a cracker with mashed avocado was not so good. Don't buy cheap sardines.

I have not heard of Bela Portuguese, but I have yet to have a bad sardine-in-tomato-sauce can. I'd just dive into those. Add some hot sauce if you want. Or put it on crackers too. If you start off making complicated recipes, you might see their flavor as an unwelcome addition to the dish. (For what it's worth, I didn't like sardines when I first tried them. Now they're my jam.)

Sprinkle with lemon and eat with a fork. Mix with mayo and scriracha and chopped spring onions and put it on a sandwich. Saute in butter and garlic, eat over pasta with parsley and lemon.

Hypha posted:I have never had sardines, I thought they were supposed to be gross and stinky. I know this sounds dumb, but I think this every time a "OMG A FOOD" thread or topic comes up. People wouldn't make and eat tinned sardines and anchovies since time immemorial if they loving sucked. If you ever look at an odd food product or dish and think "OMFG BARF ALERT", follow that up with "people eat this for a reason and that reason isn't 'this sucks'".

Last night, I combined two of our favorite canned fishes: A tin of King Oscars together with chopped Spanish anchovy stuffed olives and diced white onion on crackers. Opened a beer, watched a This Old House late night rerun and became the dadliest of dads.

hello 'dine thread, you inspired me to try something fried some diced bell pepper, onion, garlic and pickled jalapeno just enough for it to soften but not to become too brown put it in a bowl and added some diced tomato, with the sardines ready to go added the 'dines i used skinless and boneless ones in olive oil mixed it all up properly and added some salt and pepper put that poo poo in the fridge for a couple of hours to let the flavors settle in toast your favorite 'dine bread (i just used some baguette here) and spread the contents of the bowl on it finally, sprinkle just a few drops of balsamic vinegar on it and grind some more fresh pepper on those bastards et voila! i guess you could put some fresh basil on top of that as well but i didnt have any

My wife really hates my renewed interest in sardines. My cat feels otherwise. That's a majority vote right there honey. Garum is definitely something I've always wanted to do. But I don't really live near a body of water, so getting fish with their guts inside of them is pretty tough. I want to travel to Italy to get that garum-esque stuff, but apparently its pricey. Pliny the Elder would literally water it down and drink it. I add fish sauce to almost everything. My BBQ sauce has it as the #3 ingredient. Red Boat is super loving good, and I use it if the actual fish sauce is part of the flavor. Otherwise I use the one with the squid on it.

I just want to reiterate again for the thread NOT to use sardines in puttanesca. I don't know why this keeps happening or who's doing this but for fucks sake don't use sardines. Sardines are not anchovies. Anchovies are salty and pungent and are to be used sparingly as a condiment or addition to a sauce. Sardines are just some chunky fish with sauces around them. DO NOT CONFUSE THEM.

Are you an ancient roman and/or modern SE asian? If so, yes. If not, also yes. It's delicious. What brand did you get? e: this shits crazy but true, if you par-boil potatoes before you roast them, you can toss them with a little fish sauce before they go in the oven and suddenly you want to eat 1 million potatoes.
