Consider the Anchovy

Sudi Pigott is perhaps one of the best food writers that I have known in my long career. I love her new book, which is written with passion, very informative and well-researched. The book brought my culinary horizons to new heights and will bring yours as well!

Sudi Pigott has done well to shine a light on the treasures of the anchovy, a nutrient-dense morsel of deliciousness, eat anchovy over farmed salmon any day.

Between these covers is an anchovy odyssey, a journey in search of a small fish of enormous importance. Fascinating, unexpected and utterly enticing!

A beautiful subject and fascinating read from a passionate anchovy missionary

I am fascinated by how Sudi Pigott makes such a research respecting the world of anchovies with so much delicacy towards all the people who are behind

I thought Sudi's passion for food was high until we talked about anchovies! I now realise it is off the scale. One of my favourite ingredients, this book shows us all how varied and wonderful this fish is.

Fascinating in every way - a Cod for the 21st century

Not just an elegant love letter to the anchovy, but the only book you'll ever need on one of the world's greatest ingredients

A gloriously geeky, deeply researched and hugely entertaining journey that gives this small fish the epic treatment it deserves
