| Sardines
They are supposed to be the next "superfood." More omega-3 than salmon, very low levels of mercury. I'd like to eat them, but in their natural state they do not appeal. Does anyone have any good recipes that use them?

straight up from the can. then down the hatch.
canned sardine cheese melt hoagie.
frozen sardines are expensive on the west coast. Mostly used for salmon fishing, which is now limited because of W's preference to irrigation of land farms. Compensation to fishermen has been much more $$ than what would have been paid to land farms.

On toast. Put the other slice on top if you don't like the appearance.

My 85-year old FIL eats sardines every day for his health.
I told him I would rather die sooner than eat sardines every day.

I guess I'm in the minority - I love sardines. I mash them up with a little mustard and worcestershire sauce and spread them on toast. Yummy.

I like sardines saute with shallots and plum tomatoes, stuffed in crepes, pita bread or roasted peppers.

Love, love fresh ones. Just grill simply. We can sometimes get in NYC and CA, but Spain, Portugal and Italy are the best bet! Gladly eat every day when lucky enough to be in one of those places.

Love good small lightly smoked sardines in olive oil. With some lemon and pepper on rye bread open faced. Yummo--need to buy some. The prices have gone way up so now they are a treat.
