Sardine Butter
Sardine butter is a flavoured butter made by mixing 1 part puréed sardines with almost 3 parts butter. This blended mixture is then forced through a sieve. It’s used as a garnish for grilled meats and fish. The sardines used are canned ones that have been filleted and then preserved in unflavoured oil.
Sardines Day
The 24th of November is Sardines Day, celebrating the fish that provides us with an affordable, delicious, and highly nutritious food. If you’ve only ever had tinned sardines, you’re in for a treat with the fresh ones!
