How to eat sardines?!


Question: I got a can of sardines in water. I was curious because I never had them before. How do I eat it? Straight out of the can or do I put stuff in it?

I buy the ones in oil but you can eat them all the same I think. I drain the oil and pour it over my dog's kibble so it's not wasted. It's good for her coat. Then I sprinkle a little salt over them still in the can, grab a fork, lightly mash them to incorporate the salt then enjoy :D mmm mmm
On crackers sounds good too...might have to give that a try soon :)

Sardines are tasty and an excellent source of essential Omega 3 fats. GOOD fats.

PS You eat the whole lot. Bones and all which are soft.

i just put mine on a cracker. its up to you if you want to put stuff on it.

ummmm just don't. It won't be a pleasant experience. I would skip it all together , and go to your nearest Red Lobster!!!

I usually get the kind in oil, but if you get them in water, drain them. You can spread them on buttered toast or crackers, and eat them that way. You don't have to cook them or mix them with anything. You also eat the guts and bones.

I like mine mashed and mixed with butter and then eaten on a cracker...

i dont eat sardines but my gpa does...he eats them w/ crackers and mustard

on crackers with mustard and tabasco, of course.

Boy does your question bring back some fond memories for me!!! When I was a child my Grandfather and I had a weelky routine of walking to the local grocery store and getting sardines and saltine crackers. We ate them straight out of the can and he would sometimes add a little hot sauce to his. For myself I liked them plain with really fresh crackers.

I put mine in a bowl and I add chopped up onions and mustard. A little salt and pepper. I grab some crackers and watch my novelas....

You should rather add something to it. Like some rice or bread or some other stuff you like to add. In my opinion, it's taste isn't so bad.

do it like Bigeyes makes them..then i add mashed capers one or two..three if you are really BOLD..you can buy capers grocery stores ,liqueur stores..

I'm gonna barf

There are a couple of easy ways to do in a can of sardines:

Easiest way:
* fork the sardines out onto crackers.

My favorite way:
1 can of sardines
1 tomato, finely chopped
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 C cooked rice

* In a large bowl, mash sardines with a fork.
* Add tomato and onion and mix well.
* Place cooked rice in a bowl and top with
sardine/tomato/onion mix

To eat: Mix all ingredients together in bowl.

This is my personal favorite way to eat sardines.)

Drain off the fluid and pop one on a saltine. Add a bit of hot sauce or mustard if you like. Sardines are one of the few snacks that are healthy and good for you. OH YUM YUM!

sardines taste like piss and flies
