how do you make canned sardines not taste gross?

bought pic related and had a hard time eating it

You open the can and eat only the contents. The can itself is to be discarded.

The sardines in water aren't a good intro. You would probably prefer the ones packed in oil.

As said, you either like them or you don’t. I actually don’t like mixing them with anything, just chomping right out of the tin.

Also, try these ones next time

You might not be able to train yourself to enjoy them, but there is a strong possibility that someone who doesn't like unsalted, water-packed sardines would still like salted, oil-packed sardines.

But there are lots of foods many people don't like in their pure form which they are likely to enjoy in a recipe. Onions, garlic, peppercorns, butter. This "you like them or you don't" seems like a cop out.

>> No.11176413

The jalapeno flavour is the best for that brand. But overall Brunswick sardines are pretty smushy and not physically gutted, which might be reasons why many people don't like them. Gold Seal is a widely available brand with firmer texture and better cleanliness if you wanna give sardines another shot

Some companies just starve them for a day or so in nets before processing. And yeah, there's a trace of the guts taste in Brunswick sardines

I tried sardines for the first time last night to see what the commotion was about them. Got a package of pic related and ate it straight from the tin. Honestly, it wasn't bad, decent flavor but it did need some salt. Not the "this is the most amazing thing ever" experience for me, but it wasn't bad for a snack.

They're jumping on a bandwagon like wild caught salmon. Trout and Salmon are also farmed. So saying it is salmon is wild caught is fine. Not one single sardine on this planet is farmed, so jumping on the wild caught bandwagon is pointless. Every tin of sardines in every supermarket contains wild sardines. Every sardine on a fish counter is a wild sardine.

You seem to be a tad retarded. There is absolutely no need to call them Wild sardines or Wild caught sardines, as every sardine is wild caught. Google jumping on a bandwagon. Their sardines are no better than the cheapest ones in the shop.

Not him, but I will shriek some too. It is not so bad, but it is a fkn stupid description. I also frown upon the "pure canadian" description. Migratory fish that transcend borders could never accurately be described as "Canadian."

Then let the garbage brands spend the extra $.005/label to have it printed. Just because the chink packing houses canning the sardines in the lowest food grade oils possible are too stupid to change their label in no way invalidates those savvy enough to use a true descriptor that triggers the right buttons. Still haven't got an answer about why you focus on true labels while ignoring the huge number of misleading ones.
