Delicius anchovies are crafted in the coastal town of Parma, Italy, where the company has been perfecting the art of seafood preservation since 1974. With an unwavering focus on quality and tradition, Delicius sources only the finest anchovies, carefully selecting and filleting them by hand before preserving them in smooth Italian olive oil. The result is an anchovy of superb texture and balanced flavour — rich, savoury, and clean on the palate without excessive saltiness.
These fillets are ideal for adding depth to salads, pasta sauces, or dressings, or enjoyed simply on warm toast with butter or fresh tomato. Their gentle umami makes them a secret weapon in the kitchen — a small ingredient with a big impact.
 
Serving suggestion: Try melting a few fillets into olive oil and garlic to create the perfect base for a spaghetti alla puttanesca or a Caesar dressing.
 
Wine match: Pair with a crisp Italian white such as Vermentino or, closer to home, a Clare Valley Riesling for a bright, mineral complement to the anchovies’ richness.
