| Description | Anchovies caught in the Mediterranean Sea and processed fresh in Sicily, where they are cleaned, salted and left to mature in glass jars called "arbanella" |
|---|---|
| Appearance | Anchovies without heads and guts, arranged in the jar alternating with layers of salt |
| Taste | Intense and savoury; the degree of savouriness depends on how thoroughly they are rinsed before cleaning |
| Curiosity | The term "arbanella" refers to the traditional glass jar in which anchovies are preserved in salt, especially in Liguria and Piemonte: this method dates back to ancient maritime traditions |
| Our selection | Ghezzi Alimentari is a historic Tuscan company founded in 1945 specialising in canned fish products. It has several selected product brands, such as Acantilado (which uses high-quality Iberian raw materials) and Sangiolaro (which offers excellent Italian canned fish products). The supply chain is carefully controlled, with Ghezzi relying exclusively on trusted partners, and includes a wide range of formats |
| Suggestions | The fillets must be desalted with water and vinegar, then deboned by opening each anchovy from the belly and removing the bones. After rinsing, it is advisable to leave them to rest for a few hours with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil |

Why we chose them
Ghezzi Alimentari is a historic Tuscan fish preserves company founded in 1945. It is a family story that began with a small grocery shop opened by
Dante Ghezzi in the early 20th century, but which in the 1940s began to specialise in preserves thanks to the brothers Garibaldo and Licurgo, the
second generation of the family. Today, Ghezzi sees the third and fourth generations united at the helm of the company, which now focuses on the
processing of salt cod and stockfish, and the distribution of canned and semi-canned fish products. Ghezzi Alimentari offers a wide range of high-
quality products and has a solid network of partners that it has built up over the years both in Italy and abroad. This trust throughout the supply chain
allows Ghezzi to source the best fish and offer excellent products, working almost as a single entity. The company has several brands, including the
Acantilado line, which features high-quality Iberian raw materials, and Sangiolaro, which offers 100% Italian-made canned fish products.
