TIL you and shops ought to keep tinned anchovies in the fridge, even before opening. Who knew? Marcela Garcés knew, in her talk partially about how the anchovy is “misunderstood, underestimated or, worse, discounted entirely” in the US.

@jeremycherfas Two questions: 1. Why? and 2. True for sardines, also?

@JimRain 1. Because they are not completely preserved and the cold reduces changes in colour, texture and flavour.

1. Sardines were not mentioned. I will try to find out.

@jeremycherfas Very interesting. Thanks!

@JimRain I plan to follow up in more detail.
