This is not a dish for those who are not too kitchen savvy but it's absolutely delicious. It's a dish made with sardines that have been cleaned of their bones and skins, marinated in vinegar and some sugar as to give their
agrodolce or sweet and sour taste, breaded in flour and finally sauteed in olive oil and red onions. The sweet and sour type of cooking came to the Mediterranean region from the far east eons ago and it appears in many of it's cuisines. I must confess that I saw these in the take out food section of the Spaccio Alimentare super market here in Castellammare and bought a nice amount. Delicious. This is a uniquely Sicilian dish, by the way.
It must be noted that sardines and other fish known as
pesci azzurri or blue fish have all sort of healthful benefits especially on the cardiovascular system,
