The baked anchovies are a wholesome second course, easy to make and especially rich in beneficial properties of bluefish.

I love anchovies and enjoy preparing them in a tasty way yet always consciously.

Of course, frying is delicious but believe me, even baked, they will remain very pleasant to taste.

If you love fish and the recipes involving it, here are some more dish suggestions for you to prepare:

Ingredients

Tools

First, we need to focus on cleaning the anchovies.
I do this step myself, but if you don’t know how, get help from the fish market where you buy them.
Usually, if you ask, they’ll do this operation for the customer.
So, once the anchovies are cleaned, leave only the central bone, rinse them again under water, and let them drain.
When they are ready I pat them dry with paper towels to make them as dry as possible.
In a bowl, mix together type zero flour, one (whatever you have at home), rice flour, and salt.
Place the anchovies inside and coat them in this powder mix.
Once ready, spread the fish on parchment paper and add a drizzle of oil on both sides.
Turn on the oven in convection mode.
Once the oven is at temperature, cook at 356°F for about 13 minutes.
Once cooked, adjust the salt if needed, add lemon, and enjoy.
Enjoy your meal

If you have leftover baked anchovies, store them in the refrigerator and enjoy within the next two days.

Just reheat them a little in a pan, and they will be good as well.

Anchovies are a source of many beneficial properties.

Bluefish rich in goodness for our health.
