/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Yo /deenz/ bros. I'm stuck at home and got hungry, so I dug through my pantry and fridge and tried to get creative. I made a spicy sardine pasta dish, sort of stole it from Ramsey but didn't have all the ingredients.

Sautéed some chopped hot pickled garlic (no fresh garlic on hand) and an old (not rotten) serrano pepper in a pan with the oil from the sardines. cooked for a bit, added the sardines, cooked some more, reduced heat then added the pasta to the pan with some butter and this tiny bit of pesto I had sitting in the fridge. Heated it up and plated it with some grated parmesan. Pretty good IMO for throwing shit together, how did I do?

I picked up pic related a couple days ago. Will be my first can of deenz, ever (ive had a fair amount of anchovies and love canned oysters, Im sure I'll like them). I would like a recommendation on how to eat them. Cracker, lemon juice, hot sauce? Some toasted sourdough and butter, maybe fresh parsley?

I'll have a couple plain, but Id like to make them more exciting.
