Sudi

Food journalist and anchovy lover Sudi Pigott goes on a journey of discovery to find out more about the little fish with the big flavour.

Consider the Anchovy is a love letter to the humble anchovy that journeys along the Mediterranean and around the world, exploring the fascinating history and culture behind the little fish with big flavour. Alongside delicious recipes to close each chapter, this book is rich in research, stuffed with maverick, rakish characters and full of flavour. Whether you love them or hate them, Consider the Anchovy is both an entertaining odyssey and an unabashedly passionate manifesto that celebrates anchovies with their pungent, complex, umami allure as leading, albeit sometimes unpredictable, movers in world culinary history.

In conversation with Caroline Beck.
