Italian Fried sage with anchovies
Sage on the balcony is growing visibly. Strangely is one of those herbs that I use very little, if not in the classic preparations like butter&sage or saltimbocca. Sometimes I prepare the mice of fried sage that I like particularly stuffed with anchovy paste. Some people in the batter puts a whipped egg white, me I gave up for lack of eggs at home.
Definitely not a new recipe for you readers Italians, but for those American might be a nice novelty:-)
Ingredients
