Raw anchovies with lemon are a classic appetizer of Italian tradition. This simple and delicious dish highlights the intense flavor of fresh anchovies, which are marinated in lemon juice to make them even more tender and aromatic. You can add a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of white pepper to complete the flavor. Raw anchovies with lemon are perfect to serve as an appetizer or as a tasty finger food.
Carefully clean the anchovies, remove their heads and spines, cut them into fillets, and lay them out flat on a rather large plate.
Sprinkle them with a pinch of salt and a little ground white pepper, drizzle with the juice of 5 lemons, and let them marinate for at least 12 hours, turning them occasionally.
When they are well clarified, remove the anchovies from the marinade, layer them in a porcelain or glass dish, and cover them with olive oil.
They can be kept for one day, but they are definitely tastier when consumed right after marinating.
