Рецепт Spanish Style Tuyo Sardines
This Spanish Style Tuyo Sardines is the simplest way to make your Spanish sardines at home, you don’t even need a pressure cooker to make them. I heard this method of preparing this from my friend here in New Zealand, apparently she knows someone who do this for a living in the Philippines where they bottle sardines made out of tuyo (dried herring), I was intrigued by the method so I attempted to make some at home.
It was so simple the only tricky part is when you fry the tuyo in oil as it needs to be gently done otherwise it will disintegrate when you scale them but other than that it all easy. If you love tuyo this is definitely a must as you can store them for a long time and you don’t need to cook it again so if you’re in a hurry all you need it a bowl of rice and your own preserved tuyo sardines.
