Anchovies are a family (Engraulidae) of small, common salt-water forage fish. Anchovies are native to the Mediterranean and thus very popular in the local cuisine. When preserved by being gutted and salted in brine, matured, and then packed in oil or salt, they acquire a characteristic strong flavor. The miniscule scales are virtually non-existent and the skin is perfectly edible.
