Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

1 small pickled gherkin (or a small chunk of your favorite pickle)
2 guindilla pickled peppers (you can substitute a small chunk of pepperoncini)
1 pitted green olive
1 salted anchovy fillet

Steps:

Drain the olives and pickles, and remove the stalk of the guindillas. If the gherkins are too large for one mouthful, slice them in half.
Start by skewering the gherkin on a toothpick.
Next, skewer one extreme end of the anchovy fillet, followed by the guindilla peppers.
Skewer the other end of the anchovy fillet. The anchovy should now be threaded through the peppers.
Finish it by skewering the olive on top, and then dress your skewers in a bit of extra virgin olive oil.

Ingredients

1 large baguette (12 inches), halved crosswise, then lengthwise
1 garlic clove
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
5 tablespoons high-quality, unsalted grass-fed butter, at room temperature
24 olive oil-packed anchovies, cut in half crosswise on a bias, preferably Cetara
Flaky sea salt, such as Maldon, for serving
2 tablespoons chopped Italian parsley

Steps:

Preheat the broiler. Put the halved baguette on a baking sheet. Rub the cut sides with the garlic clove, then drizzle with the olive oil and spread the butter on evenly.
Place the cut anchovies evenly on the bread and broil until brown and bubbly, about 4 minutes. Cut into 12 even pieces, crunch some salt over the top and sprinkle with chopped parsley.

These salty and briny little snacks are prepared using only two ingredients, but pack a major flavor punch. The anchovies add an umami richness to the briny olives which pair perfectly with a pre-dinner cocktail.
