What's the best way to introduce yourself to canned sardines? Is it on bread, crackers or in pasta or something? Or do you just eat them straight from the can to see if you have a taste for it?

[Anonymous No.16796177]

>>16796171
Eat them straight. Everything else is a luxury.

[Anonymous No.16796195]

They smell so fucking bad and the consistency and taste are awful. I put some on a pizza and the whole thing got soggy even though I got the oil packed ones and carefully drained them, and it smelled like low tide and the few flies in my apartment congregated. It was based because I killed them all at once, and I ate it, but I'm still going back to canned chicken. I genuinely do not understand why you all think it's manly to eat bait with the spines left in. Is this whole deenz thing a meta shitpost about taking the bait?
The Italians are retarded, these are fish meant to catch other bigger and better tasting fish with.

Not sure.
They’re a canned fish. There’s plenty of canned fish. I enjoy them, but greatly prefer kippers, canned mackerel, and canned pacific saury.

Mackerel is good if you really like fish.
By which I mean it has a stronger “fishy” smell/taste than a lot of other fish. So that turns some people off.

Canned fish is a staple of mine, eat them almost daily. They're so bland and I like that because it makes it easier to go on a fast. "I'd rather go on a fast today, than eat this crap again."

>>16796171
When you open a can you will noticed the fishy smell: the smell is a lot more intense than the actual taste. Some people complain about bones or skin, but it becomes nearly absent if you mix and mush it up. Get the regular, plain sardines canned in oil or water first, as some of the other flavors such as mustard or tomato sauce can be very iffy depending on the brand. Some people eat them straight, but I use them more as an ingredient in other things. You can of course try them straight from the can, but if you want you can start off by making them into a spread.
>drained can of sardines
>equal amount of cream cheese
>chopped dill, garlic powder, black pepper, or other herbs/spices you want
>served on crackers
It a pretty good snack. Cheap and lots of protein for it's size. On bread, in simpler pastas, in sandwiches, mixed into fish patties are all good options too.

Grab a can of smoked sardines in water.
Open can and drain water.
Toss sardines in a bowl.
Add some diced celery.
Add some sweet pickle relish.
Add some mayo.
Mix.
Toast bread.
Slice tomato.
Cut up romaine lettuce.
Place tuna mix on toasted bread and top with sliced tomato and romaine lettuce for a delicious sandwich.

Do not fall for Corsican propaganda.

[Anonymous No.16807446]

>>16806819
Sort of. Back in the day Corsica was apart of the Italian nation of Genoa. The country was nearly bankrupt, and Corsica had rebelled against Genoese rule, following a revolutionary leader named Pasquale Paoli. in 1767, Genoa agreed to sell the island to France, who in turn invaded and destroyed the revolutionary republic. Despite living under French rule, many Corsicans, Napoleon's family included, considered themselves more Italian than French.

Napoleon's family was Corsican Independence rebels, and Italy didn't exist until Napoleon made it, really, so I don't know if I'd say he considered himself Italian. Definitely not French, though, his edgy teenage manifesto is hilarious in that regard.

What do you eat them with?

And I personally remove the spin. It takes like 10 seconds. Split with a ford and scrap out. They're so soft they open up like a crease fold.

[Anonymous No.16809528]

>>16809410
I just use them as a cheap protein to put in a sandwich. Mayo, mustard, tomato, cucumber, lettuce, onion, pickles. Other times I'll eat them on warm rice with laoganma and a fried egg. They're even good if you mix them into pasta with olives, fresh basil, sundried tomato and parm. They're tasty and versatile, which is probably why they are so popular.

Leave the olive oil on and turn every couple of seconds on the grill. If you think one side is burning brush oil on. Brush more oil on the finished product if your stomach can handle it. Lowish heat turn constantly

[Anonymous No.16814583]

>>16809410
For a quick meal:
1. Make a bag of 90-second microwave rice.
2. Add a can of sardines packed in olive oil. You can mash these up if you like.
3. If the sardines were just in water, drain them, add a tblsp of olive oil.
4. Sprinkle garlic salt.
5. Add hot sauce, salt, pepper, other seasonings to taste.
