Ingredients

  • 2.5 pound anchovies fresh whole
  • servings olive oil extra virgin as needed
  •  juice of lemon 
  • servings salt and pepper black freshly ground to taste
  • 1.5 cup white vinegar plain

Equipment

  • bowl
  • baking pan

Directions

  1. Split the anchovies up the middle, gut them, and remove their heads and spines. Rinse them drain them.
  2. Spread about ½ of the onion slices onto the bottom of a 9×13 glass or ceramic baking dish.
  3. Lay the anchovies on top in as close to a single layer as possible.
  4. Combine the 1 cup vinegar and lemon juice and drizzle the mixture over the fish. Top with about ½ of the remaining onion slices.
  5. Put the remaining onions in a small bowl and pour remaining ½ cup white wine vinegar over them.
  6. Let the fish marinate in a cool place for 4-6 hours. When the flesh of the anchovies has whitened and firmed up (the acidity will cook it) drain them and transfer them to a different bowl. Season them lightly with salt and pepper, add extra-virgin olive oil to cover, and garnish them with the remaining onion and the vinegar in the bowl.
  7. Let the fish rest for a few more hours in the fridge, and serve them as an antipasto.
