Curing Fresh Anchovies

Ingredients:

 Steps:
- Take a high jar of crystal and we will fill the coarse salt fund. Then place it a few grains of black pepper.

- Cut the heads of anchovies without removing the intestine. The anchovies must be very fresh. Place a layer of anchovies and a salt and peppercorns. So to fill the whole glass jar.
- Screw the lid tightly and leave at least 6 months in healing.


When the anchovies are cured either homemade or purchased in any commerce, remove the the tail, the intestine and all the fishbones.
