The Seas Finest Natural Wild Caught Hand-Filleted and Hand-Packed in Pure Cold-Pressed Olive Oil Non-GMO Project Verified Contains 160 mg Omega-3 Per Serving Gluten Free; Kosher; Low Fat Anchovies are prepared using the oldest known method of preserving food - salt curing. We start with the highest quality fresh anchovies and place them in barrels in alternate layers with sea salt. Maturing occurs from 3-12 months. A slower maturing process is better for extended shelf life. After curing, the anchovies are cleaned and packed by hand in pure olive oil. Their unique flavor is perfect for salads, casseroles and pizza.
