A traditional method of processing and preserving Mediterranean Whole Anchovies is to gut and salt them in brine, allow them to cure, and then pack them in oil or salt. This results in their characteristic flavor and the flesh turning deep grey.
With Spanish boquerones, the anchovies are milder and the flesh retains a white color.
In Roman times, anchovies were the base for the fermented fish sauce "garum".
