These ‘Ansjovis’ may sound like they are anchovies, but no. They are small sprats (baby herring), which is a much milder taste than anchovies. The most common use for these, are in ‘Jansson’s Temptation’ – a potato gratin that is usually served on the big occasions like Easter and Christmas. Please don’t make it with regular anchovies though, the flavor will be too overpowering. Swedish confusion-power at its finest – and a nice talking piece at dinner.
