Bought a 12 pack of KO Mediterraneans based goon recommendations. Tried them for the first time last night.

Opened the can and splashed oil on my pants. Small nice looking fish - looks tast... sliced black olives?

The olives plus olive oil were all I could taste. Tails were a new thing. Ate the tails.

All in all will finish the rest of the tins but a disappointment.

Ordered a 12-pack each of KO Mediterranean and KO cracked pepper. Shared the cracked pepper tonight w/my dog. Great stuff. It's nice and peppery. Shitload of peppercorns on top. I love it.

Looking forward to trying the meds after royal tasting the medi mackerel

I haven't tried those yet, but I got some mackerel with the meds treatment in my :siren:KO sampler:siren: and I found it to be pretty complementary.

Most of my sardines are just in olive oil, but I'm a back to basics kinda dude. "Mediterranean" is like fancy stuff to me, for special occasions, not everyday.

Also the linking of testosterone to oven settings in this thread is pretty cute. So long as bones are eaten I'm adequately mollified.

http://thingsmybellylikes.com/2013/03/25/fishermans-eggs/ says 375 but I think there's some sort of dadfight about it going on. maybe because that recipe says to use a white onion but the proper way uses a shallot? i dunno

also I use 3 eggs because 4 eggs is just too many egg

I followed this recipe and made mine in a cupcake tin since I knew I wouldn't be able to eat that recipe in one or even two meals.

You guys are going to go loving crazy when I finally make my sardine pizza @ 500 degrees. Maybe this weekend. Pizza dough is a pain in the old beehive and I like my pizza dough but I don't like making it so I might just buy some from this local bakery that sells fresh dough balls but otherwise I'm gonna make the sauce putanesca style.

I like to go to papa murphy's and get a ready crust for two bucks. If you have P-murph or another take-n-bake place near you, i highly recommend begging them for a crust on the cheap. It's worth it.

e: I'm looking forward to seeing what you do. I think you're in frontier territory. You could do a pizza with sardine and fennel if you wanted to go sicilian. too weird to live, too rare to die.

Sardines are a little more consistent. Good mackerel is really, really good, though you never know if what that's what you're getting until its too late. Bought a super expensive German brand recently and its muddy dank-rear end bullshit. Whole can goes to the dog.

If you got a brand that's always great, let us know!

Just King Oscar Mediterranean Style.

For sardines I've had some luck with Trader Joe's Harissa ones. Straight up they don't taste much like harissa but they're bigger, clean fish.

If you love the 'dines, do your part to reduce global warming.

Dinner was unsatisfactory, so later I had some Brunswicks packed in water on top of dollar store saltines. Eaten over a sink. The Brunswicks were firm & large (4 total fillets in the can). Kinda fishy but I love that.

I'm not sober enough to read that whole link but I thought 'dines were basically cool to eat since they're low-ish on the food chain. Or is that what it's saying?

Also, Fisherman's Eggs is just Shirred Eggs with fish instead of pork of some sort.

Imma sit on the fence here too and say that both 350 and 500 both work and the only real difference is how long that poo poo sits in the oven. This isnt bread or nothin where the temp really matters.

Being low on the food chain makes them ok from a mercury (and other bio accumulative stuff) perspective, but the fisheries are mostly not run sustainably.

Seafoodwatch.org

If you eat Mediterranean sardines (e.g. King Oscar's pilchards) then you are literally a sea-destroying monster. Pacific sardines are best but they are shut down until June 2016 (which is why they are best). Baltic sardines are barely acceptable if they come from an appropriately-certified operation, which King Oscar's brislings currently don't though his website claims that they will be Any Day Now.

I have nothing but confidence in you, and very little of that.
So I did a bit of comparison, and nutrition estimates seem to vary a lot even within brands. Is that a species thing? I was going to order some King Oscar brisling sardines in olive oil, but they seem to have more fat and less protein than some of the other options out there. Is there any rule of thumb for getting healthier sardines?

Yeah, don't loving worry about it. Is, like, 1/20th a percentage difference in protein by volume going to make that big of a difference in your quest to get swole? If you want dines with a lower fat content then you need to get ones that aren't packed in a fat medium, ie. water, which are gross. Dines are good for you, don't waste your precious dine granted mental energy in trying to min/max the fuckers.

The only min/max you should be doing with dines is how many per mouthful.

Something else I noticed, sardines in oil seem to always be smoked unless they're also skinless and boneless. Not sure what's up with that. I'm not big on smoky sardines, how are King Oscars compared to Wild Planet on that front?

KO's are, in most varieties, on the oily/smoky side. The only thing I remember about Wild Planet was not liking them and I'm pretty sure one of the reasons was that they weren't smoky enough. Filipino dines aren't smoky, are dirt cheap and are -okay- if you douse them in something other than the tomato sauce they're packed in. They come in round cans.

I had a tin of them on Saturday and just had a tin of them over a bed of brown rice for lunch today.

They're rather spicy and have chopped up jalapenos right on top of the fishes and are very very good.
