I was never a big fan of anchovies, in fact, they repulsed me. One summer on my parent’s boat, I became very seasick. Our Italian Captain, Mario, gave me one little salty anchovy fillet on a cracker and told me it would cure my ailments right away. He explained to me in Italian that I needed to be “one with the sea.” It absolutely worked! I also became very fond of alici, anchovies. This antipasto is my version of the marinated anchovies I had in Porto San Giorgio at a restaurant on the beach, Ristorante Chalet Vela. How beautiful this dish looks once you have layered all the ingredients on top of a starburst of anchovies. Serve with Crostini or crackers for a crunchy, salty, delicious bite! Enjoy with a chilled glass of Lumavite Falerio.
