Open the pack and discover neat, meaty fillets that are ready for pasta, pizza, salads, or the first pan of a sauce. Is this your first time buying from us?

• Adriatic anchovies, rich and savoury
• Hand-processed using traditional filleting methods
• Firm, meaty texture in oil
• Great for pasta, pizza and salads
• Dairy free and gluten free ingredients

Use one or two fillets at the start of a tomato sauce and let them melt into the oil. They give depth without tasting overly “fishy”. We also like them laid over hot toast with butter, or chopped through greens with capers and lemon.

Meet the maker: Rizzoli

The Rizzoli family are master anchovy curers. The company has been passed down through five generations of the same family.

Perhaps surprisingly, they are based in Parma, the land-locked city more famous for its ham. However, Parma is also on the ancient salt road from the port of Genoa, and (in 1892) was the epicentre of Italy's tomato canning revolution. Founding brothers Luigi and Emilio Rizzoli spotted potential to combine the booming canning industry with the city's trade routes and launched what has become one of Italy's best-known anchovy brands.

The signature product was born in that first year: anchovies in spicy sauce. Rizzoli Emanuelli still describes the sauce as a secret family recipe.
