Hi Tim,over here they are a highly rated fish,we actually have designated sardine fishermen,they are really popular,as many people have had them in Europe on holiday in Spain and Italy,Portugal and France where they love the humble sardine.They are a cheap priced fish here too,but are a big seller, especially for the BBQ.I love them, cooked pan fried, they are awesome,and they are really good for you too.which is a bonus.many thanks Tim for that great comment,cheers mate.
thank you scott for this video! thanks to your easy to follow instructions i just filleted and pan-fried some fresh local sardines from monterey bay which were selling for $2/lb here at the market (!). i only wish this video had your excellent narrations like your other videos!

Thank you Lyn,glad it helped,sardines are fished down in the south west of the uk,cornwall and devon,they are pretty abundant,so you find them in virtually every supermarket,and fish mongers,maybe you could try your local fish monger,if not maybe try it with mackerel,hope this helps,thanks for the lovely comment,all the best and keep watching.Scott
As a little girl in Ohio in the States, my first favorite sandwich was ... big funky sardines! I WAS DOOMED, ha ha ha!!! This is an overlooked fish indeed. So versatile. Uprated.
Thanks Scott, Never gutted a fish in my life, saw your video, thought I'd have a go and now I'm an expert! Standard of instruction others should aspire to, especially those mumbling computer nerds! Like, like, like! Thanks from Steve
Great video mate, you showed multiple cleaning methods and did them well without smashing the fish which some people have on other videos. Top job, I'll be right for ours tomorrow now.
Here, and clearly I'm on the wrong side of the Atlantic, I can buy them whole, dressed and frozen for silly low prices as they are considered "junk" or ethnic food. Thanks to Scots vid. I finally know how to prepare them
Hi, Scott. I like the way you cleaned your sardines. I did mine and found that they were quite smelly. So I tried some different techniques. Oh well, they came out pretty tasty. Thanks for sharing your video.....real nice. (:
H ah I just couldn't wait for those sardines, so this kind of afternoon tea, I managed like a butterfly fillet, and ah yeah they were flavoursome, thanks.
I picked some up from Chinatown in Sydney with heaps of other fantastic stuff, Yeah it was like five dollars for 16 of them pretty cheap, I'm thawing them in the fridge right now and am going to have the fillets for lunch tomorrow with some fried potatoes.
Excellent :-) I just bought some sardines from Greece. They are a lot smaller than yours, but Whole and frozen raw... Looks like about 20 per pound. Filleting these little babies may be tricky... lol I think, your method of Pressing them, to remove the bones, may work best... We'll see...
Ich ess meine Sardinen roh und ganz.Da ich Sie wegen der Gesundheit und nicht wegen dem Geschmack esse.Darum schluck ich morgens öfter mal ein paar so.Nass und roh rutschen die ohne Probleme hinunter.😅So bekomm ich auch Omega 3,obwohl ich diese Fische nicht mag.
Didn't realize that sardines grew that large. I eat the can variety, swimming in vinegar, pretty much on a daily bases - its one of my favorite snacks.
This video was awesome! I wanted to know how to make this and your video was very thorough. Where do you buy whole sardines? I never see them at the grocery.
Thanks I just bought a smoker and at the market I wanted to buy sardines beside makrel but thought it was too much work. Next Saturday I buy Sardines :)
Oh no, but instead of that he throw away the half of fish meat. The scales must remain to be sure that these 6 massacred sardines will be enough for a meal.
With these badboys i like to let them defrost in the sun and when they're ready I like fillet or butterfly fillet it then i skewer them onto a hook. Then if you want you dress the fillet on the hook with what they call Pro-cure Sardine oil and then I like to throw it out far and catch me a 15 pound all white meat striped bass. Lol

I adore fresh sardines and those looked simple, but amazing. Well done.

the fried fish seems more delicious than the grilled one.... im gonna fry some now... irresistible... yummyyyyy....
Thanks ash,glad you enjoyed it,its not one of the most expensive fish,but damn sure its one of the tastiest by far,cheers mate.
Thank you Youssef,much appreciated,cheers.Scott
Thanks for the tip to press on the sardines to remove the bones! We love sardines but bones not so much :)
Good eating . Excellent choice of music.Cheers.
Tq brother for teaching me to clean sardine this is my first time
I would've liked to hear the sounds of cutting and sizzling that fillet,
nice one ash,frying them and crisping up that skin transforms an already great fish into an amazing dish,try it and let me know,cheers mate.
Thanks for taking the time to do this demo for us.

Thanks, very informative and tasty. I didn't see you scale them. Did you, or were they scaled already?
Thanks for that. I can get on with my dinner now

Yeah!!!!! Damn good sardines..... But they were frozen so went a bit messy while cutting.... Any ways thanks for the awesome recipe.....
Very good thanks
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Useful!
Scott, we wanna hear next time, don't leave us puzzled thinking that something goes wrong with the PC.
Thank you so much🎉
them sardines were cute
look delicious!
but olive oil is not good for high temperature pan fry.
nous avons de bonnes sardines ici au Maroc,et les différentes méthodes de les cuire,il y en a beaucoup ;quand au prix est de 0,5 dollar le kilo
Are there any scales on these fish. You never show removing scales.....
Oh no, but instead of that he throw away the half of fish meat.
The scales must remain to be sure that these 6 massacred sardines
will be enough for a meal.
@1:06 the guts look like a gargoyle
Scott you're like me I use olive oil frying but we are wrong to do it. It's carcinogenic
+mikecat23 Not even that, its smokepoint is rather low. The reason I do not use it to cook in. Sunflower oil is better.
man it s impossible to fillet a fish like this!!!
Hey .....
With these badboys i like to let them defrost in the sun and when they're ready I like fillet or butterfly fillet it then i skewer them onto a hook.

HAHA i love it,i will give you that one,ANOTHER good way to use the humble sardine,cheers mate and happy fishing,cheers.Scott
+Scott Rea
" Humble sardine"? my friend there is nothing humble at all about the sardine ... it is possibly the finest tasting fish in the sea!
are this the same canned sardines? i feel robbed lol
Scott can you please retake the video that you do not talk in please , i still look at them but there is no passion when you are not talking .
Scilent v. Is not interesting , l like to hear your voice .
Don't you scale the sardines. Ugh! What is that rag mopping up the liquid.
