Beautifully packed, professional yet rustic napkin

classic deenz serving suggestions

just got all these from an apu store since the main groceries here only have chicken of the sea and wild planet, we'll see

Today I made some flatbread and hummus and ate them topped with mediterranean deenz for lunch. I'd have preferred the bread to be soft but it was still very good so whatever.

>>15643198

Truly one of the greatest works of humanity.

Been working through my stack because lent is here
>>15643198
Tabasco really does go great with deenz

>>15643143
The best snack. Sardine, pickle, cream cheese on cracker.

>>15643395

Nice stack brother.

For me, it's kippered herring

Will deenz give me vinagery shits?

Do they really leave the guts in them?

>>15643198
>"Tobasco"
retards

>>15644900
No the guts are removed

>In Britain, Ireland and some regions of North America, kippers are most commonly consumed for breakfast. In Great Britain, kippers, along with other preserved smoked or salted fish such as the bloater and buckling, were also once commonly enjoyed as a high tea or supper treat
UK anons, are there really people there so based they eat canned fish 3 meals a day?

>>15643220
Open one and post a review.

>>15644907
>hurr old books are diffurunt

>>15643143
That's a big can

>>15644917
i'll do it for lunch tomorrow
i'm already all souped out for tonight

>>15644825
No

>>15644900
They remove the guts but some keep the bones in, which are edible.

>be /fit/
>looking for new sources of protein
>bonus points if it is at a good price
>try deenz because of these threads
>they suck

Thanks fags
Also they were King Oscar.

I don't know if I can ever go back to the store brand stuff after trying a can packaged by special royal permission
>>15645056
It's okay to be a tastelet

>>15644935
But Tabasco is a state in Mexico. It's a proper, well-known name. It was never spelled "Tobasco".

>>15644950
>souped out
Did you find the cold spots using the cylinder method?

>>15645056
It's alright anon. They're not for pussies

>>15643143

i've been getting these big ass cans of california girl sardines, in tomato sauce, for $1.76 each . they seem kinda big for sardines, and probably inferior quality, but they hit the spot for breakfast

King Oscar Mediterranean edition, was boneless fillets and pure luxury

>>15645258
King Oscar's been going to shit since they got bought out by the Asians. Shit their skinless boneless deenz aren't even deenz any more, some SE Asian jungle fish.

>>15643407
idk how i feel about the pickle but I like your choice

>>15646068
Please redpill me on this brand. I've never even seen them in stores but then again I haven't really been looking.

>>15646162
Formerly a good brand, King Oscar was acquired by the degenerate Thai king's sovereign wealth fund and quality immediately dropped.

>>15646068
>Boneless
The bones are literally free calcium baka

>>15644900
Yes. Enjoy eating fish poop and parasites.

>>15643143
now beenz it

>>15645513
Nobody cares about some shithole state in shithole Mexico.

>>15646588
i know this is probably a meme image but i would totally eat this.

>>15646588

I'm just not high enough for that

>>15644917
OK, mediterranean deenz report. I opened some of the Turkish (Dardanel/El Manar) and Moroccan (Sultan) ones.
The Dardanel and Sultan ones had slightly different spices, but similar mild heat and flavor level. Overall they were flavorful enough to be enjoyed on their own. The El Manar ones were just in olive oil, and kinda average overall so I used them for a deenz salad.
The Sultans were much larger and held together well, the Dardanels and El Manar were softer and fell apart a bit more.

>>15648476
Salad:
Deenz, avacado, lemon juice, green onions
Powerful Russian mustard, salt+pepper
Mash it up

Sauce from the old book:
Sweet Catsup, vinegary Tobasco, and bitter lemon balance each other out
Mix it

Toast:
Make toast
Add butter

>>15648496
And lunch

This nigga eating deenz yo!

>>15645056
ngmi

>>15648504
Based. I just ate a tin plain with some pepper and lemon juice, and had a side of Puglian mushroom antipasto.

>>15646248
I'm not deficient in calcium and I have tastes buds so it's not free

>>15648607
>Puglian mushroom antipasto
how do they prepare the mushrooms there?
i started pickling yesterday because of /ck/, made a jar of mushrooms from pic related but haven't tried them yet.

>>15648668
They’re lightly pickled, it’s delightful. Here’s a pic. Sardines are Adriatic Sardina brand.

>>15648721
I enjoy all of these things (Adriatic sardines are kind of meh tier) but this combination makes me want to vomit.

>>15648739
Adriatic sardines, IMHO, are the best on the market excepting bespoke >$5 a tin varieties.

>>15648755
I ordered a case and have been working through it the past few weeks, and I have to say, they're average at best. Agree to disagree, but I'd take a can of double layer King Oscars any day over these.

>>15648808
Tiny Tots are mushy, not well smoked. Adriatic Sardina deenz are firmer, and smoked well.

>>15643395
>skinless and boneless
You need to crunch on their bones my man

>>15648828
>Tiny Tots are mushy
That's just flat out not true. I'd say they're close in texture, and if anything KOs are a bit firmer. I think they just have a much better flavor.

>>15648832
yes unless you're a kid then you gotta gnaw on some real bones

>>15648828
>>15648843
this is why ck needs flags like pol
who is importing who's deenz here, and who's buying local?
i have to import everything but i'll bet anons who live in deenz zones get best deenz

>>15648920
>why ck needs flags
It doesn't. You can usually just assume everyone is American, unless they're bitching about Americans (and even then they're American half the time). There's 3-4 hours when Americans are asleep and the board turns into Australia shitposting, but it's pretty easy to spot Australians (they seemingly live in a different universe where mods never existed, so it's /b/ 24/7).

>>15645519
gonna have to explain that one to me

>>15648476
are Turkish deenz to be trusted?
>>15648828
>Tiny Tots are mushy
slander

>>15649271
The Dardanel ones are in sunflower oil so that's not as good, the fish themselves were fine and the lemon/pepper flavor is good
El Manar is Tunisian and not that great, they were olive oil but the fish weren't as good or maybe overcooked

>>15643143
dead meme. thread closed.

>>15650290
Agreed. We need more space for McDonalds and e-celeb threads.

>>15644911
Kippers in the UK are often packed dry in a plastic pouch, rather than canned in a brine like kipper snacks.

So... no, they're probably not eating canned fish thrice on a particular day.

sneaky fish

I want to try my first sadines/anchovies but I'm afraid of my first attempt leaving a bad impression.

What are some tips for newbies?

Does costco have good stuff?

>>15645856
Ovalcan is idealcan.

I'm a little put off by the apparent easy open lid and the tomato sauce (the color and lack of surface oil are concerning), however if I encounter this variety at any of my usual retailers, I would be pleased to purchase 2 cans to sample.

Ovalcan deenz are almost always large fish; often saury.

>>15650406
Tips for newbies? They're not fugu and I guarantee that aside from the rankest tin of deenz, you've had worse to eat.
Geez, everyone wants to act like this is complicated. If you've eaten chunk light tuna in water and it didn't totally put you off of fish for life, you'll be okay eating a can of sardines. Get a single can if you're so timid, not a costco bulk pack, of basic king oscars, plain in oil. The skin and bones really don't make a huge difference unless you're squeamish but they have both so get whichever.
Eat one by itself, then add some salt, maybe smoked paprika, play around a bit. Maybe try them on crackers, too, people seem to like that.

As for anchovies, maybe don't eat those by themselves just yet if you have reservations about the sardines.

>>15643143
Really not a big fan of these. Bought a bunch because Costco, but they're so dense and kinda chalky

This is my addiction.

>>15651510
But not the herring, the smoked sardine one.

>>15648832
>>15648873
Yeah I wish they did have bones :^/
but the quality for the price is really good imo
>>15650406
costco has the season brand that's been posted a couple times in this thread. a couple times a year they go on sale for $7 for a 6 pack which is hard to beat for their quality
>>15651483
I can see how you'd think that but you should try breaking up the deenz and mixing them in with the oil. Add some vinegar, mustard, hot sauce (I highly recommend tabasco), or something else to balance the oil.

>>15643395
Does the olive oil really make them better than just in water?

>>15646588
I eat black beans, tuna, and deenz when going poverty meal mode

>>15651571
Yes, by miles

>>15648508
fo sho!

>>15651700
I'm trusting you and ordering a 12 pack

>>15651571
nigga do you not understand osmosis?

What got you into Deenz?
For me it was my grandmother having them with cracker as a snack and sharing with me when I was a tween.

>>15643189
nice. monterey bay aquarium. grew up in pacific grove and spent many an afternoon in there lookin at fishies

>>15651791
Nothing else to eat and I had a bad case of the munchies. There was a tin in the cupboard, Beach Cliff packed in soybean oil. Honestly not bad besides the oil

Thought the spine was a worm. I was so naive lol the rest is history

>>15651791
The deenz memes of course.

Deenz are delicious but a pain to eat, you have to brush your teeth and wash your hands everytime you eat them.

>>15651821
ya aquariums are interesting, the monterey one had a bunch of fish canning history stuff up when i went

>>15651791
it started with russian inlaws and coworkers
then lockdown and deenz threads settled it

why isn't there more diversity in canned fish species, anons?
asians will fry any fish it seems, why can't we get diverse canned fish?

>>15651893
Ah good at last something to promote my secretions

>>15651912
Big Deenz is a central power and will not be threatened by other canned fish.

>>15651571
it seals in the juices without over-hydrating the fish, there's no contest

>Not eating mackerel

bruh.

>Thought I was outta Deenz
>There were actually a couple cans behind a box of pasta

>>15643143
pic related is the kling of deenz
no substitutes

>>15651881

>>15651967
no better feeling

*blocks your path*

>>15651965
Just ordered a 12 pack in olive oil along with my olive oil deenz

>>15651791
Cheap protein. I ate beach cliff in water (often adding my own oil or vinegar) for far longer than I should have before deciding the soupy consistency wasn't worth the savings over a better brand.

>>15651912
>diversity
What?
My neighborhood supermarket carries 3+ species of tuna across 2 dozen different packagings, salmon, brislings, "deenz" in 3 dozen varieties (a sort of catch-all, since so many species can be labeled sardines), herring, mackerel, at least a dozen different anchovy types (flat, rolled, paste), and then we can get into octopus, snails, oysters, clams, shrimps (sad when canned, but they has)...

I do have to go to a specialty store to get squid jerky or bonito flake.

What are you looking for? Canned shark?

i enjoy deenz so much that i'm unironically beginning to feel this is some sort of honey pot or psy op. yeah, i'm retarded, whatever.
it just seems odd to me that i've discovered this delicious, nutritious, convenient, relatively inexpensive, and not environmentally horrific food source. it feels too good to be true.
will they soon put out lists of everyone who's purchased deenz in the past year and label them as frequenters of this east timorian bat wrangling forum?
gives me the spooks.
i just wonder what the catch is.
deenz should literally be advertised as: "Deenz, too good to be true."

>>15652855
This is exactly how I've been feeling, it's sureal, also notice how it seems like nobody eats deenz besides us? very weird. Anyway for me, it's King Oscar.

>>15652855
>Post another deenz thread

>>15651571
Holy shit yes

>>15652855
The likelihood seems low, but I'm afraid it's going to defy probability and hit mainstream culture. Then the normalfags will wreck it like they do everything else.

>>15652894
I've never seen anyone else buying them at the store, have you?

>>15644750
Ok faggot.

>>15648504
>mashing deenz and avocados together
I am mildly perturbed by this

>>15652855
>>15652894
>implying normies don’t ever eat canned fish
Are you two retarded? When was the last time you sat and watched the fucking deenz aisle for hours on end? How can you claim nobody else eats them when they’re on the damn shelves? What the fuck good would they do the store if nobody ever bought them?

Y’all need to go outside more

>>15653090
>never seen anyone else buying
And yet, the cans disappear from the shelf faster than my personal consumption would account for.

I figure it's bible humpers trying to figure out if sardines were part of that loafs and fishes thing.

Anyway, if you find yourself near a bar offering a smelt fry, you probably want to partake.

>>15653246
I'm racist against birds and reptiles. Amphibians and fish ONLY

>>15645056
plain protein shakes also suck
a can of deenz can have as much as 20g of protein while being just 80 cents

What's the best cheap brand of deenz, I had some chicken of the sea yesterday and it was fine, I just was always scared because of the price being under a buck each.
Pacific wild is better tho

>>15653269
Brunswick are the only good cheap sardines imo, try those.

>>15643143

I've over eaten deenz and mack

Ive had to take a year off - Im bigging on rollmop / pickled herring from the polish section in my country. Two fillets, some sliced tomato and a little rocket between toast. Shits dope.

>>15653180
i've mentioned deenz to perhaps 8 of my acquaintances, and all of their reactions varied from absolutely disgusted to generally uninterested
i bet that if a person is between 25 and 35 and eats deenz, there's a >5% chance that they lurk here, perhaps higher

>>15653300
Yeah it’s definitely more of an older generation thing to eat canned shit

>>15645056

1 can tuna
1 can kidney beans
1 can anchovies in oil
healthy glug of your fav hot sauce

Mix it all about. I call it the snack pack. The fat from the anchov oil will keep you going and the saltiness is beast

>>15653360
yes. because these books are from the time when they were diaspora, so what they cooked was based on what was available in whatever country they were in, which varied widely. pic related.

mwPolar. Round can smoked brislings, ovalcan in tomato sauce.
Aldi / Northern Catch in mustard sauce.

There are a number of asian brands that are good, or at least ok, once you ignore the hurrdurr aznfish bad memery, like Ligo.

Obviously your store's sale prices may not be as good as mine, but I got these for 99 cents a can.

>>15651791
I like being alone, some of my favorite childhood memories were sneaking outta bed by 2 PM and having a nice can of deenz in the dark.

Yes DEENZ are absolutely based, my preferred deenz are in tomato sauce and i'll add some pepper with Yucateco Habanero Sauce

>>15653797

soon, i'll know. and yes i blame their little youtube documentary for this.
they were at least shipped with an icepack and still cool upon arival.
the icepack leaked so they were covered in icepack gel, shouldn't effect the deenz though.

>>15653970
Nice! Wish they sold these in the states

anyone tried octopus /deenz/? bought a can yesterday, havent opened it yet

>>15654255
every octopus i've tried was tough and very rubbery... none of them were canned/pickled though
canned fish is usually softer than fresh so maybe canned octopus could work, let us know how it is

>>15654255
>>15654817
It's still pretty rubbery. Can't remember which brand I got, though.

>>15654255
>>15654817
>>15654946
why is octo so much more expensive than squid bros? I think I might have to poorfag

Don't want to start a thread for this and I figure my /deenz/ bros would know, what's the lowest PUFA "neutral oil"?

>>15654946
:(
>>15654959
maybe because it's so rubbery there is barely any market for it

>>15655193
I bought the squid :)

how can i enjoy deenz without carbs?

>>15655258
I mix them with cottage cheese and various seasonings

>>15655106

>>15655258
lemon and tabasco are a good balance to the oil and fish, salt and pepper
olives, fresh or pickled vegetables on the side

>>15653342
You absolute fool. Protein powder is the only food source that lets you build muscle and lose fat. Everything else with a decent level of protein comes with high levels of fat, salt and carbs.

>>15643143

>>15655603
you think it was just a quality control slip up?
in the nuri deenz video on youtube they have these ladies doing quality control by just *feeling* the cans, it seems like it would be unreliable

>>15655679
>sensing the quality of deenz simply by touching the can
>ywn be this one with the deen

>>15644900
99% of the time, they're removed. You will very occasionally get one that is only partially cleaned, but it's not usually the "poopy bits" that aren't cleaned, and you end up eating a fish liver or something.

>>15655690
here's the timestamp
>https://youtu.be/jpTwHAt0Zxw?t=410
>they can hear the deenz

>>15651483
These and "chicken of the sea" brand are not even real 'deenz, but Atlantic Herring or some other similar species. They're decent, but if you go in expecting a nice silky smooth oily sardine, you're gonna be disappointed. They eat like fishier, less-flaky tuna.

>>15655679
Most definetly, btw no wonder nuri is so damn good

>>15655699
I've commonly found roe in cheaper brands, but I like the texture so I viewed it as a bonus.

>>15653269
Beach Cliff gets a lot of hate because Bumble Bee is a crooked company, and they're available at walmart. I admit they're hit or miss, but if you get a good batch they're on par with King Oscar, albeit maybe a little more sloppily packed.

>>15648960
Search the archive for "soup cylinders". Classic thread.

>>15653789
I already posted my thoughts in another reply. They're not good 'deenz if you're looking for a traditional sardine. They have the same taste as their tuna, just a bit fishier and less flaky than actual tuna. Way too salty, too, and the same weird "chicken color" that their namesake implies.

>>15655705
holy shit lol

>>15654255
I love it, but I feel like it's unethical somehow. It's incredibly protein-rich, like maybe the highest of any animal food we eat.

>>15655724
Same. I'm sure some queasy people would be put off immediately, though.

Sardines (packed in oil, of course) and Coca Cola

Try it and let me know what you think. The juxtaposition of the rich, salty, oily deenz and the light, sweet, effervescent Coke is incredible

tried some deenz because of you faggots, tried one cold out of the can and it was eh not great but not bad could probably stand to eat more if it was all I had, had the rest on pizza and it was great

>>15646068
Just ate my first tin of sardines tonight and this is what I had. Pretty fucking good.

>>15656913
They’re better with things, but on pizza sounds a little weird to me. Anchovies on pizza are best.

>>15657496
Nice, try Riga Gold, MW and also Season brand deenz if you ever want more variety.
Godspeed, deenzbro.

>>15651821
rich pos what are you doing on 4chan, should you be blowing a ceo to stay in your nice office?

Am I missing something? It just tastes like fish in a can.

i can never eat just one can. Minimum 2. Sometimes 5.

>>15651821
I remember being stoned as hell taking videos of the flamboyant cuttlefish there - so good

Do you heat your deenz first? Or straight from the can?

>>15657819
Eat em straight unless I'm making pizza.

>>15655679
>quality control by just *feeling* the cans
They're sounding the cans.
Through much experience - feeling and hearing the differences in vibrations in thousands of cans a day for years - they can determine if a can isn't sealed properly, is overfilled, or underfilled.
Truckers do this with their tires.
It's not unlike tuning a guitar.

>>15657946
Not him but I have an uncle who used to work in a deenz factory, said the same thing a few years ago lol.

yeah my dad works for the sardine factory part of nintendo

>>15651791
I tried my first ever sardines and anchovies last week because of these threads. I love them both.
So far my favorite has been pic related. I cannot believe I've gone so long without eating something this amazing.

So far I can't eat the whole tin of anchovies. Any good recipes for them? I end up putting them in my ramen.

>>15658176
Make pizza with the anchovies, or put em in salads.

>>15643143
wtf did I fall for the /deenz/ meme

my king oscar sardines did not end up being packed like that. although they were amazing with these mini toast crackers

The catch is theyre expensive.
100 grams of King Gustav is roughly two us dollars.

Yes.
It's just a garnish or something. Pic related.

>>15658269
So now im not allowed to eat lettuce??

>>15658274
you’re allowed to eat it it’s just a shibboleth so richfags know you’re a poorfag

What’s your ideal deen-to-cracker ratio?

>>15658465
Depends on several variables:
>how big is the cracker
>how big are the deenz
>how good is each component

>>15653970
Haha, awesome, man. Hope they're as delicious as they look. I've been wanting to buy some ever since I saw that video.

>>15654036
I got mine off Amazon at $5-6 a tin, but after trying them theres no turning back

>>15658246
>t. low levels of omega-3s

>>15659281
Deenz are loaded with B12 and protein too.

>>15659291
plus many trace minerals

What should I have for breakfast:
Smoked herring or KO in mustard?

>>15643198
ngl wine-and-anchovy sauce on deenz sounds excellent. i'd probably sex it up with a little chopped shallot

>>15645513
people used to spell it "marihuana" too

>>15659534
a big part of why it's often spelled "tobasco" is because of tobacco

>>15648739
mushrooms and oily fish is a classic combo though

>>15650406
get a nice can, enjoy on crackers with a dash of hot sauce or some lemon juice. add some chopped red onion if you're feeling frisky. that's it

>>15644911
ireland and the UK have herring-rich waters around them so that was the dirt cheap food of choice, often smoked or pickled

>>15659543
"tobasco" is also phonetic spelling of actual american pronunciation of "tabasco". not to say it's right but makes sense for a time when you've probably only ever heard the word said and you couldn't give less of a shit about mexican geography

>>15659480
bros please i'm hungry

I have 100's of these and they are the goat. I think the sauce is so good, the Nuri sardines from Portugal are good too

>>15643143
I like these more

Smoked herring.
It's too early in the day for mustard fish.

I've never heard anyone pronounce it with "to" as the first syllable.

>>15659526
I bit my tongue thinking about this.

>>15651571
Yes. Way less flavor when in water. Tastes more like tuna to me. I have had some Mackerel in water that was alright, but still tasted a lot like tuna.

Doesn’t look too bad.

Just bought a can of these brisling sardines

what am in for?

>>15661501
tfw too poor to eat thos deenz

>>15652855
sometimes i'll lay in my bed and just think about cracking another can. sometimes i'll actually get up and do it, just lift them out of the can into my mouth hunched over the sink in the dark like a neanderthal, then go to bed happy.

sometimes when i eat them at home after i finish a can i have to tell myself i'm not allowed to crack a second.

the deenz have me, boys.

>>15644944
Para vuestra merced.

>>15662474
>spring water
you fucked up

>>15662474
Never buy sardins in soybean oil or water, you lose a ton of flavour. But crown prince is a really good brand so they should still taste decent, just boring.

>>15653741
thats such an aesthetic tin

>>15643143
>damn deenz

>>15663692
shame she's not nearly as cute as she used to be

Is it healthy to eat deenz everyday? I usually have a tin with creamcheese and a bagel, two tins if Im feeling extra hungry

>>15663839
Eating a tin or two a day is actually great for you. Been doing it for a year now.

this guy def posts here right

>>15663961
and ricky radness. there's multiple deenz youtubers now.

>>15663839
Most studies show that the lower a fish is on the food chain, the lower it is in mercury content. Some waters are still contaminated with PCBs and petroleum-based contaminants, but in my opinion these aren't any worse than eating something like hotdogs or beef jerky or something with deliberately-added carcinogens.

>>15661501
>>15662986
I bought and sold gamestop back in January. I'm thinking of ordering a flat of these, since I'm almost in the club myself.

>my canned deenz, mackerel, and squid came in today

>>15663018
You are my hero

>>15663992
who cat this is

>>15643143

Can I eat too many deenz? Can I get mercury poisoning or something like that? I eat 3 cans a week because I can't afford more, but I worry that chemicals or stuff could add up if consumed so much over a year.

>>15665565
Never mind just saw someone else asked the exact same thing >>15663839
should've finished reading the thread before I posted. Disregard everything.

>>15665510
Based as hell

I think I put them in my instant ramen once.

>>15665686
Was it good? sounds tasty honestly.

>>15665741
yeah, it was pretty good.
Goes well with white rice

actually went from vegetarian to pescetarian bc of this thread

>>15665947
lmao same

>>15665947
bread and fish, food fit for the son of god
add some olives for additional symbolism

>>15654255
Mixed up my mollusks, it's squid and this is the best /deenz/ I've ever had. Canned with tomato sauce, onions and white wine, rich umami flavor and the squid is softer than any fresh squid I've had. Also had some codfish from this same brand, pretty disappointing, tough and flavorless.

>>15666184

Is it true that in parts of Spain and Italy, tinned fish is considered a delicacy?

>>15653217

lmao! its been a long time

>>15666219

that looks repulsive. taste any good?

>>15648721
>>15652894
>nobody eats deenz besides us

In Italy, they have a cult following. So much so that every grocery store runs weekly advertisements on different brands of sardines at incredible prices in order to draw in foot traffic.

Luigi and Antonio eatz canned fish every day when they are not smoking or eating diabetes causing pastries.

>>15666359
I meant in burgerland, but It's great to see deenz are well liked in Italy.

>>15666259
>Is it true that in parts of Spain and Italy
Tbqh, sardines are to Italy, as ketchup is to the United States. It's beloved by the great majority here.

>>15652894
that's my jam right there. Buy them by the case from amazon. I have a can every two days.

>>15666338
Tastes great! The oily repulsiveness is part of /deenz/ culture IMO, like a crunchy spine or some free fish liver.

>>15666184
What brand?

do people do anything with sardines besides eat them out of the can. i cant garnish anything with a smelly oil headless fish

>>15658874
OK, Cheap vs Expensive Deenz review:
>Brunswick about $1 or $2 at the store
>Nuri about $10 online with cold shipping

First thing I noticed about the Nuri is that the can is smaller and more densely packed, with less volume of oil than the larger cheaper can. Also notice the congealed fish fat in the Brunswicks, absent from the Nuri since they're not cooked in the can.

The flesh of the Nuri was very firm, and the Nuri fish stayed together well without falling apart, as you can see the Brunswick was a lot softer and broke up while serving. The taste of the Nuri was better but only slightly, the biggest difference by far was the texture, firmness and appearance. The Nuri also had a little less fishy smell, probably on account of the congeal fat and in-can cooking of the other.

Served with deenz sauce on toast, with olives and homemade pickled shrooms. Worth it? Depends on your budget I guess, they're definitely superior deenz to anything I've tried.

>>15666703
Good review. I think Brunswick gets too much hate here sometimes. For 2$ish its the tomato basil and mustard are not bad at all. Nuri will always be on of the goat deenz, but as they say you get what you pay for.

>>15666184
damn that looks like inside of my toilet after drinking a few cups of coffee

>>15643220
Sultan is some of the best imo, bottom right is my favorite

As someone who's never tried sardines which is very odd now that I think about it because I love sea food
What would you guys say is the best kind to try and what should I add with them?

>>15666703
sardines in olive oil is sardines in olive oil i guess. i wonder how many factors in fish canning actually affect the price, but if it doesnt come through in taste I guess it doesnt really matter

>>15648476
I like eating those spicy sultans rolled in some toasted pita, just a lil salt pinched on it. Some basmati on the side

>>15666338
does it though? looks like a spicy asian soup >>15666219

>>15666735
Best kind, there's a few. But Nuri seems to be the popular choice. However, difficult to find in stores if you live in the states. King Oscar, Brunswick, or Wild Planet in olive oil is a good jumping off point.

>>15666723
>666
I think the Nuri's would be another step above if you eat them plain, being better in holding together and fishy taste, two common complaints about eating them plain.
If you eat them with stuff it makes less of a difference compared to mid range deenz I think

>>15666734
>>15666741
OK them vs spiced Nuri next

>>15666735
Depends, personally it’s sultans in olive oil with chili pepper for me, you can see where I said that. I was never a fan of Italian/Portuguese shit in tomato sauce, but that’s meant for adding to pasta, or canned in mustard, and I find it absolutely fucking disgusting when shit gets canned with like carrots and what not.
I prefer olive oil>water for sardines. Now without that heat, it’s really up in the air, buy some plain king Oscar in olive oil, eat on some crackers or toast and see if you like it. Or you can add it to some other dish. I also like to mash em up into rice, and I’ve also made deen cakes that I really enjoyed, but I did that with spicy sardines, though if you do that you can spice to your tastes of course.
So many people I’ve met have expressed disgust and condescension over my enthusiasm for sardines, many people think it’s just flat out nasty, and always remarking on the smell and exaggerating. Personally I don’t mind the smell one bit, but it may be a hump to get over, i smoke a pack a day so maybe that’s why. If sardines taste metallic like the can, that’s no good. So just go to the store and buy some plain ones in olive oil, I’d say try bumble bee or king Oscar, don’t get chicken of the sea, I’m personally not a fan of the lightly smoked shit they have, but if you try those others one and like em go ahead and try it and see if you like it.

>>15666796
Or wild planet/king Oscar like other anon said. Bumble bee is cheaper, and I’ll grab a few cans to snack on.

>>15666796
Thanks the fishy taste won't bother me as I love that shit

>>15666789
Shit I’m gonna try the nuri too

>>15666837
Then you’ll probably like em, if you eat tuna sandwiches, I’d say do that with sardines to start, doesn’t spread like tuna ofc. First time I had sardines it was a revelation and now tuna disgusts me, very boring as well. Sardines have the spine intact, if you mash em you won’t even really notice it, as for the texture it’s a bit chalky(?), doesn’t really have a flavor to me, I like eating them, but if that disgusts you, look for a skinless/boneless pack, I believe king oscars sells these, but I like eating em so never would buy.

you guys really do like bringing up the complimentary free spine and liver, its not even close to an issue the bones are like a babys its needed texture more than anything

>>15666987
I only bring it up cause nancies always complain about it, and they’ll use it to say “disgusting! I’ll never get these again!”

>>15666737
Texture matters too.
Trimming and gutting matters too.
Are they smoked? That affects both taste and texture.

You're paying for a lot of things to go right, not just the fish.

>>15667018
>You're paying for a lot of things to go right, not just the fish.

you listed texture 3 ways which I think is accurate, only thing I look for is creamy deenz over chalky dry brands

>>15666338
My God, turn this into a /ck/ banner

>>15666685
Albo.

>>15644900
I think king oscar does. There is no cut on the bottom to eviscerate them.


There is no poo tho, they starve them and they empty their digestional tract before hatvesting. According to wikipedia at least

>>15666688
pattes, mayos, potato and apple salads, salad salads, sandwiches, omelettes
also, sometimes ill save the fishy oil and use it on pasta sauce

>>15666735
Olive oil king oscar, stir fry some veggies and try them with the cold /deenz/.

>>15653241
Can I really be mad if I have legitimately found a product that I enjoy? It's not like I got memed into some shitty scam product.

>>15666688
potato salad, pickles, or crackers. I'm a simple man really.

>>15667041
Trimming is a matter of which parts of the flesh do or don't go in the can.
Gutting is a matter of which parts of the not flesh do or don't go in the can.
Texture is largely a matter of how long between catching the fish (harvest) and processing, plus if the processing is done well (to preserve quality) or merely adequately (to prevent botulism).

Smoking firms the texture and adds flavor, generally in a good way.
If there weren't nuances, everyone would buy CotS and there would be no market for Millionnaires or Porthos.

>>15651791
Used to eat em with dad before he died.

;_;

Every time I eat a can I pour out a Lil oil for my fallen homies

>>15651791
The packaging is aesthetically appealing to me

Dallasanon here, I buy the cheap deenz from the Asian market, am I gonna die?

fucks sake canned squid is good, this tastes like a better version of clam chowder wtf
