anchovy paste
Fishy tube condiment
Anchovy paste is a concentrated preparation of ground anchovies, salt, and oil, sold in tubes or jars.
It dissolves easily into sauces, dressings, and braises, adding savory depth without identifiable fish pieces: A squeeze of anchovy paste transforms a simple vinaigrette.
The paste delivers umami—that meaty, satisfying quality—even when anchovies themselves aren't detectable in the finished dish.
