Directions
Small tender sardine filets marinated in white wine vinegar, drizzled with golden olive oil, sprinkled with fresh parsley and spiced with garlic are perfect as an appetizer with white wine or to make as part of a meal.

Steps
1
Done
|
If the sardines are fresh, you need to freeze them beforehand for three days at minus 18 degrees Celsius or less at a lower temperature (check the standards on the Internet) in order to eliminate parasites. If the sardines have already been frozen, defrost them in the fridge. |
2
Done
|
Clean each fish by cutting off the head, removing the guts and rinsing it carefully under running water. Cut off the filet pieces, and throw away the backbone and tail. Then place each filet skin-side down on a flat baking sheet or dish. |
3
Done
|
Sprinkle the prepared filets generously with salt and then pour white wine vinegar (5%) over them, which can be diluted with water if you prefer a less sour snack. If 9% vinegar, be sure to thin it out. The vinegar must completely cover the fish. Next, cover and leave the fish in the fridge for at least 6 hours or 12 hours at the most. |

Slice the garlic thinly and finely chop the parsley greens. |

Drain the vinegar and arrange the fish on a serving plate in a single layer. Dab the excess vinegar. Then, pour olive oil over the fish, covering it completely. Sprinkle it with garlic and parsley greens to serve. |
