How our fish preserves are prepared
Our fish preserves from Sicily, from a nutritional point of view, are a real boon for health. The fish contained within them is rich in minerals such as iron, iodine, phosphorus, potassium, vitamin E, as well as B vitamins. Our production process involves precise processing and transformation phases:
- Our fish is caught daily in our Sicilian waters and is immediately cooked by boiling in state-of-the-art machines.
- The boiling of the catch is done in water and salt to preserve the organoleptic qualities of the fish.
- Subsequently, the product is cleaned of bones and is hand-packed in jars as per tradition.
The ancient Sicilian maritime processingSicilian then involves the phase of filling the fillets with extra virgin olive oil and continues with the sterilization of the products, which are subsequently labeled and packaged.

Prepared like our ready-made sauces with seafood, cuttlefish ink, or carrango ragù, they are the ideal solution for achieving excellent results when there is no time to prepare the seasoning in advance. Anchovies in oil, as well as anchovy or shrimp sauces, are the ultimate choice for bruschettas with family or friends.
