Anchovy rillettes

Anchovy rillettes recipe

I had great gourmets at home, the theme was fish; I wanted to be original, I chose anchovies, a fish with a lot of character. A word of advice, if you test this recipe, bring the anchovies at the end in small doses and taste each time, this way you will not be carried away by the flavor of this fish. Me, the anchovies, I love them, I like their slightly salty flavor, I like to spread them on a piece of bread and to accompany them with a good white. Anchovy rillettes, each according to his appetite will cover his bread to a greater or lesser extent, I admit that I am always a little generous with my sandwiches… to hell with avarice. Anchovy rillettes, here are rillettes that are a bit off the beaten track, my little sister, who loves recipes with fish, loved it and believe me! it is a sign, I would even say a nice value.

Arbois Pupillin red pinot 2013
The color of a luminous ruby, this colorful and tannic wine recalls the great nobility of this pinot, which made the reputation of the neighboring vineyard, Burgundy. Here the main predominant are the red fruits (cherries, strawberries and even a little blackberries), it flows well and brings a little freshness.
