Looking for a pop of flavor to shake up your midweek meals? Look no further than whole sardines. These tasty little morsels are sadly misunderstood, but they’re healthy, affordable, safe, and sustainable. Caught fresh and frozen at sea to maintain the natural juices and flavor. Whether grilled, fried, broiled, or baked, we guarantee that these little, oily fish can satisfy even the pickiest of eaters. Don’t let canned sardines deter you – frozen sardines will have you singing a different tune.
Sardines may have a Best Choice ranking for sustainability, but they are also packed with protein, omega-3 fatty acids, calcium, iron, potassium, and other essential nutrients. Our frozen sardines are wild-caught and incredibly versatile. Our whole sardines are available in eight-pound packages, which makes it easier than ever to stock up for dinner parties or special occasions. Before cooking, it is important to prepare your sardines by scaling and rinsing them in cold running water. Remove innards and bones, and you are ready to go. To satisfy any skeptics, you can use a simple marinade to tone down the fishy taste.
Frozen sardines are especially popular with pizzas, pasta, and salads. We ship our whole sardines on dry ice straight to your door to ensure that they are frozen upon arrival. Order today and enjoy free shipping when you spend $250 or more!
This is exactly where i got mine from lol. Needed whole sardines for a stargazy pie last summer. The only downside is they take a long to prepare. Have to that them over night, then descale them, then gut them, then marinade them before you can cook them. It’s not hard, just a process.
You put that much effort into making a pie with fucking fish heads sticking out the sides? Why? I mean I’d probably eat it and probably even enjoy it but it looks just awful.
If you are every in Pittsburgh, Wholey’s is located there and has a fish market downtown which really great. The food there is solid and unpretentious. Highly recommend.
Try some smoked kippers. I like sardines as well, but much prefer the herring. Polar is a light tasting, inexpensive brand, but there are lots of options.
I also ordered 8lbs of sardines last year, and am working my way through the final 3lbs of them. They are just so tasty
Tinned sardines are a lovely snack and everyone should keep some on hand. This is a hill I am willing to die on. A hill of sardines.

I fully disagree. Anchovies on the other hand are the gods’ apologies for the hard parts of life.

It was for a baking challenge, and it tasted absolutely amazing!

It’s a shame, they’re like twice as expensive as canned tuna for some reason where I am!
