PREPARING SARDINES

Preparing Sardines

Preparing Sardines needn't be a long, slow, laborious job; you can prepare them quickly and simply just using your hands...
 
First, use your thumb to nip behind the head of the sardine.
Remove the head by pulling it downwards and bringing the innards with it in one nice smooth motion.
Turn the sardine upside down and run you nail along the bone from the gut cavity down to the tail to butterfly the sardine.
Open the sardine out flat.
Use thumb and finger to snap the backbone near the tail.
Pull out the backbones.
Nice, clean sardine fillets in just a few seconds.
