Prepare the Spread

  1. 1

    Make Calabrian Butter

    In a small bowl, blend the Calabrian butter until smooth. You can use a fork or a hand mixer for this step.

Toast the Bread

  1. 2

    Toast the Sourdough

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the sourdough slices on a baking sheet and toast them in the oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy.

Assemble the Toast

    Spread and Top

    Once the bread is toasted, take each slice and spread a generous layer of the Calabrian butter on top. Then, layer the Cantabrian anchovies and boquerones evenly over the buttered toast.

  2. 4

    Garnish

    Grate the mint bottarga over the anchovies and finish with a few fresh mint leaves for added flavor and freshness.

Finish with Olive Oil

  1. 5

    Drizzle with Olive Oil

    Finally, drizzle the biancolilla olive oil over the assembled toast for a finishing touch.
