Greek salad with feta cheese, anchovies, croutons and greek salad dressing. I'm just curious if there is anyone else who likes this combo as much as I do. There is something about the taste of anchovies I love.I would like to find out how many people like anchovies and how they use them.?

fafarlle,broccoli and anchovies





1 pound farfalle pasta

2 heads broccoli, trimmed to florets (about 4 cups)

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

4 tablespoons butter

3 garlic cloves, chopped

5 anchovy fillets, diced

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1/2 cup grated Parmesan

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook, stirring occasionally. After 5 minutes, add the broccoli florets to the pasta and stir and cook for another 4 minutes. Drain pasta and broccoli, reserving 1 cup of the pasta water.

Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the garlic, anchovies, and red pepper flakes and cook for 5 minutes. Add the broccoli, pasta, salt and pepper and toss. Add some of the reserved pasta water, if necessary, to make a light sauce. Transfer to a serving platter and sprinkle with Parmesan.I would like to find out how many people like anchovies and how they use them.?
I like many types from the tinned types, to the sauces and I buy white Spanish ones here in Canada, even have bought the salted ones at Italian markets too. It is a matter of taste and willingness to enjoy them, most people who do not like them had a bad experience with them mostly on a pizza, but most people are unaware of all the food there in and still eat them.



I have even dealt with fresh ones at times.
Hey!!Your recipe sounds great!! I will try it!! Thanks for sharing!!



In Spain anchovies are very popular and we use them for a great number of dishes and also for tapas. A very typical Spanish tapa is on a slice of toast to put white albacore tuna with an anchovies!! I love also anchovies on my salads. Have you ever tried endives with roquefort and anchovies? Just delicious!!



My favourite anchovies brand is SERRATS and they have a blog where they post recipes with their anchovies.. I hope it helps you!!
I like them on pizza to be honest, but you can rarely get them as a topping, try it sometime though.
I love roasted spicy honey anchovies. I usually eat it on its own...sometimes with my mango salad too. love it
I eat then straight out of the package.
