Instead of "rotten" I should have probably used "fermented". They're dark brown, not dry but not in a liquid, individual anchovies that are starting to fall apart. They smell like a stronger version of fish sauce.
- wahnfrieden 2mo agoWhy not just use colatura di alici?
- dfxm12 2mo agoIf it's the salted anchovies I'm thinking of what I'm thinking of (like in the yt video in your sibling comment), salted anchovies are a lot cheaper and more versatile (the downside is that more processing is required on your end). Colatura is great in sauces, but you can use whole anchovy filets to make a gilda in addition to adding flavor to a sauce.
- comrade1234 2mo agoI prefer not to cook that because I like the taste of it very much. I use it like Roman soldiers used to use it - a liquid that you put on whatever you're eating, like we use ketchup now. I think the Italian fish sauce is much softer and more refined than Asian fish sauces.

- comrade1234 2mo agoYeah, rough-ground peppercorn.
