I decided to make myself some sardocado sammies a few days ago. I didn't feel like firing up the broiler to toast my oiled bread, since the broiler setting on my oven is past 500, and that way lies madness. So dadly make-do spirit came up and here's the solution I came up with for top notch toasting without setting your oven to "kill".

Cut your nice thick bread slices, and put them dry in your slot toaster, and toast them a bit less than you normally like. Then you put them on something fireproof, like a good ol' cast iron skillet, and brush them down with your sardine oil. Then, you hit em with your blowtorch (if you have an electric light torch, light it up before bringing it to the food, so you don't spray it with unburned hydrocarbons) and get that oil toasted into your bread, and the bread nice and dadly. If the bread keeps burning after you turn off the torch, you got some flavor.

I divided it up with half an avocado on 3 slices off a sourdough loaf, and that tin of Belas had 3 perfect fish, 1 for each slice. Then, when you got it all done but the squeeze of lemon, hit those babies with some more torch, because hot + food = cooking. Squeeze your lemon and eat like King Oscar wants you to. If you have a searzall, it'll take longer for the flamethrower part, but it'll be much more even.

Other night I was hungry and lazy. I fried up a few eggs, toasted some multigrain bread and popped open a can of KO jalapeņo sardines. Ate all the fishies on top my egg, on top my bread and it was great.

If you have a searzall, it'll take longer for the flamethrower part, but it'll be much more even.
The broiler is past 500 on the dial because it just turns on the broiler heating element without temperature control so if you let it rip with the door shut for an hour it doesn't want to make any promises about how hot the oven is. But there's no real need to preheat, especially for toasting bread, so as soon as the element is red hot you are ready to go. And if you absolutely must have a tepid oven and only the top of a thing getting toasted you can even leave the oven door cracked if you don't mind heating your kitchen.

One weird trick salamander and searzall manufacturers don't want you to know!!

e. Although for my time and effort, I'd probably just fry bread in a skillet if I wanted that oiled grilled bread flavor.

Update on the Cole's products:

SQUID GOOD. Ate it with garlic naan. 4 squid heads stuffed with rice, tomato sauce, and olive oil. I'll have get some more next time I have to go to Walmart.

SALMON BAD. Not worth the money. Tasted almost identical to the Bumblebee smoked tuna which is $3 less per can. Only difference was that this stuff was moister. It also looked and smelled like tuna.

Holy cow, the squid's great. I took a taste and decided they were a little lacking on their own, so I got out my tiny squeeze bottle of leftover balsamic reduction and squirted some on, then minced some parsley and added that. Maybe it'd be better heated, but these things are really delicious. Wonderful texture, too - not rubbery at all, which I thought might be the case.

Picked up two more cans of KO Tiny Tots yesterday along with some saltines - I really think they will work better than the Keebler Town House I used last time. Still have a tin of Wild Planet in reserve, too. The store I was at only had Brunswick kipper snacks, so I passed on those - the KO are so much better that the Brunswick just don't seem like an option.

I wrote the first review of them in the old thread. I think they're my favorite 'dines. They'd be perfect if they actually had some real heat to them. Still great though.

Smoked salmon is my go to snacking fish.

Smoked salmon rules but is pricey as all hell if it's remotely fresh. I haven't tried any canned variety but the honey smoked salmon they sell at the store near the fresh fish is about $10-15 for maybe like a 6 oz cut? I don't remember the exact pricing but now that I'm talking about it I'm definitely going to pick up a piece tomorrow. Can anyone recommend a good canned variety for me to try while I'm at it?

I feel like people keep knocking on the cheaper brands but i don't think they're being fair. I've been dinin since i was a kid and while my mom would get me more expensive ones like the tiny tots as stocking stuffers for christmas, on a week to week basis i was eating bruneswick, beach cliff, bumblebee, pretty much whatever and they're all good. The cheaper brands tend to have bigger fish (so the spine is more noticeable, but also easy to remove if you're gonna be a baby) and taste more "fishy", but if you actually like the taste of sardines they're fine. Expensive ones are nice as a treat but there's no reason to pass up the 1 dollar cans. If i were introducing someone to sardines id ease them into it with the milder flavors of ko, but if you're a seasoned veteran you should be able to enjoy other ones too.

No idea about Brunswicks, but in my experience Bumblebee in mustard really is garbage. Just limp flippy flappy gross fish in a mucousy yellow sauce. I'd be the first to celebrate it if it were worth a dang for a buck.

I eat Bumblebee in mustard on Triscuits or saltines as my daily sardines and treat myself to Bela or KO's on special occasions. Cheap 'dines might not look pretty in the can but are usually tasty.

Beach Cliff is the only brand I don't think I will buy again.

Had some KO sardines with jalapenos over a bed of my favorite new crop japanese rice (kokuho rose) the other day. Good stuff. Nice blend of heat and vinegar. It made of the rice leftover a tasty finish to a nice main part of the meal.

Jumping in to defend bumblebee in mustard. They look gross and the mustard is weak, but honestly for a buck a can, I just throw on some mustard powder and they're totally tasty.

But I'd be lying if I told you I don't get eeked out by the massive fins.

I'm as annoying as the high-pitched whine of my motorcycle, desperately compensating for the lack of substance in my life.
I had some brunswicks kippers for breakfast today for the first time. Good, different, and something I look forward to again. I tried some of those KO spanish style chili and olive oil ones and found them to be (mostly) skinless and (sometimes) boneless

What's for breakfast 'dine dads and dadettes? Found these in a British foods shop awhile back and finally decided to crack the can.

Instructions on the back said to simmer for 7 minutes.

Filets look good.

Multi grain toast with a thin smear of whipped cream cheese. Mustard and red onions pickled in rice wine vinegar.


I was concerned about the sunflower oil but it added a hint of sweetness to the kippers, overall a great meal. Wouldn't drop 7 bucks for another can but other brands are readily available.
