It was about time that we offer also some seafood Goodies so we have found a small producer from Campania (Italy) that has what we were looking for: good, tasty, unusual, healthy and traditionally prepared fish specialties.

"GHIACCIO"
Fishing boats along the coast drag our attention, when Jurij and I first visited Sicily. They had the smallest fish in buckets I have ever seen. They looked like a big jelly to me. And we did not stop searching until we tasted that fish and were impressed. Now we have them in our offer, directly from the small village called Cetara.
These are tiny fish, transparent, look like ice that is why they call them »ghiacco« - ice in Italian. They are also called »neonata« or newborn as they are so small, barely born. My friend also mentioned a name »centaboca« or thousandinmouth, literally. Ok, I think it is clear enough.
These fish are protected and can be caught just from January till April. At Battista they marinate them in oil with some chili peppers – nicely spicy, kind of milky taste, delicious. Great on bread or and in different recipes, usually with pasta.
 
PROCEDURES FROM THE PAST
A small »laboratory« for sea food processing, sardines at the most, was open after Second World War in Cetara – small, charming fishing village near town Vietri sul Mare (Campania, Italy) and it was run by Mr. Pasquale Battista until the end of the 90's. The skill of processing anchovies was passed on to his children who today work with as great passion as their father according to traditional methods and recipes. Passion and love are all very specific to the work of Battista family and this is one of the specific natures of their businesses.
 
If you visit their »laboratory« you can notice that some procedures are still as they were: control of products, selection, processing, preparation… and all this under close supervision of the one who is responsible for ensuring standards of production in accordance with applicable regulations.
Nothing has changed, and this is felt in the exceptional taste.
Their products are strictly with no preservatives and chemical additives in order to maintain the natural, authentic taste.
The combination of few natural ingredients along with the process that maintains only the best of tradition provides products for a healthy and balanced diet. Once again it should be noted that the processing is completely manual.
