Deenz are not a hobby

>>19801186
You should show some respect for the deenz more than you are, with your flippant questions

>>19801201
its just canned fish

>>19801206
Heh, that's nice kid.

>>19801193
They are.

>>19801210
lmao what the fuck

How do you guys like to eat your deenz? Thinking of adding more to my diet

>>19801193
Deens are truth. deenz are reality, deenz are what it is.

>>19801193
Nothing is a Hobby unless there is a work product that results from the hobby. Wood working is a hobby, programming is a hobby, but gaming is not a hobby because there is no work byproduct.

>>19801210
This is a work byproduct. Deens are a hobby.

>>19801210
These guys rather build shit like this than fix their birthrate

>>19801186
King Oscar. Ate them for lunch today. They’re the best. My chihuahua loves them, too. I had to share with him. I tried giving him cheap sardines once to save money and he wouldn’t eat them, lul.

>>19801854
with a fork
sometimes on a piece of toast
seriously, if you buy good ones, its all you need

>>19801186
You're not wrong but you should probably be more considered about Chinese canned oysters.

>>19801186
>stuff from europe is better than stuff from china
North Atlantic > Baltic > Chinese

>>19801854
Add it to a salad. They tend to work better in salads with oil dressings opposed to, say, Ranch or French dressing.

Make a salsa verde:
>big handful of finely chopped parsley
>a few deenz (or anchovies)
>capers
>clove of garlic mashed with side of chef knive
>chop it all up together so the flavours mix
>transfer to bowl
>add olive oil (maybe a tablespoon?), 1/3 that of lemon juice
>salt, pepper, red pepper flakes
>whisk together
>serve over poached or baked fish, or any meat meat of choice

>>19803059
what countries of origin would you reccomend?
i imagine a lot of scandinavian countries could easily farm/fish in the baltic or north atlantic

>>19801210
lmao

>>19802383
Yeah on some italian crusty garlic bread

>>19802403
>chinese canned anything
>oysters
GTF outta Dodge!
Who the fuck in their right mind eats that shit?

>>19801186
Filtering deenz, now.
Enough.

>>19804392
this is the board for food
do you have an issue with sardines

>>19801186
Love them. My favorite deenz are the Portuguese-style fat ones, 4 to a tin, over the little King Oscar kind. Belas are my daily driver deenz

>>19801854
Throw them in instant ramen, mix into cottage cheese with Worcestershire sauce and honey, mix with rice and soy sauce, eat with crackers and Coca-Cola. You can whip up anything if you have a little imagination. Once starving after work, I fried onions in the sardine oil, then added tomato paste and the sardines to warm through, mixed with pasta, lemon and parsley. It was a delightful little meal. You basically can't go wrong

>>19804273
>what countries of origin would you reccomend?
British Isles', Portugal, Spain, Morocco, Eastern US/CA (but I never see any from here)

>>19804773
interesting stuff, thanks for sharing anon

>>19801854
I like to use them with spaghetti aglio e olio and toss in some black olives as well. Also throw them in a tomato sauce and serve over pasta / rice.

Easy way to get some fish protein, and pretty tasty.

Big lunch today bois

>>19805601
>I like to use them with spaghetti aglio e olio
Same. I add a little lemon and depending on my mood capers.

Another day, another can.

>>19801186
Theyre good in Omega 3 acids

best sprats coming through

>>19807835
Those are really good. The smokey flavor really kicks up the taste of a rice / noodle dish.

what are you supposed to with the oil?

>>19808027
When I buy sardines in oil, I use the oil to help saute veggies for sauces I make for the dish. If you don't want to use it, you can just strain it out.

>>19801193
>t. deenlet

>>19801854
Pilchards with a vinaigrette or hot sauce desu.

Big ol fatty fish are good with an acidic sauce desu senpai.

>>19808027
Whatever you do, don't pour it down the drain.

First off i would rather eat my own shit than to eat any chinese cheap food. I do not trust them to even put actual deenz in a can

I ate pic related during the weekend. The can is really pretty, vibrant red. The deenz were pretty good too, big and fat. I just poured them in bread tbqh with all the tomato sauce. I do not think the extra price for the tomato was worthy it tho, the deenz by themselves are good enough

>>19801186
I buy the ones that come it water and use them in stir fry.

Every time I go to Aldi's I have free pick between many sort of deenz, which have the protein I love, and these oysters in the spicy oil. It's a hard choice because they have half the protein that deenz have. If I could only get deenz in that oil, not water or olive oil or cotton seed oil... Right now I'm positively stuffed after eating one can of these oysters and one can of Aldi deenz in olive oil. I'm smitten by deenz and oysters and don't think I'll ever stop eating them after having started eating only a month ago.

Has anybody else noticed deenz dry out their lips?

It is imperative that we not let the deenz meme outside the deenz thread. Marduk the sun god commands it.

>>19801210
based but that's an anchovy

>>19801854
Lately I've been eating the Nuri deenz in spiced tomato sauce on garlic bread. I top it with parmesan cheese and olive oil.

Thoughts?

>>19801186
Because you reminded me I had a tin, I just now made them into a paste with cream cheese, capers, dijon, horseradish, lemon and black pepper and spread some on crackers.

BEST TINNED FISH HERE. STAND ASIDE

The Baltic Sea is one of the most polluted bodies of water in the world.

>>19801854

>soak up oil, sauce and bits of fish mix with bread

>>19814475
Okay, I guess that would matter if they were catching the herring in the Baltic Sea, but they are not.

I'll eat a second tin now that I had to grab it and take a picture.

>>19814475
And the Mediterranean is full of corpses. Thanks, I prefer Baltic.

>>19814485
The kippers I have right now are Brunswick which are from Canada. Maybe I'll buy some Polar to compare. The only other ones I've tried are the King Oscar kipper snacks, but those are more expensive here in the US than Brunswick.

Have you ever wondered if you'll ever fall off your deenz high horse by one bad can of deenz?

>>19816043
There's plenty of fish in the sea anon. Can't let one bad can spoil the school of deenz.

>>19817551
Too bad there aren't any good women thought.

I kneel, anon. Those are some fancy deenz.

I'm gonna vomit...

GOD i wish I had some deenz right now boys. Fucking hell what I wouldn't do for some king oscars on a piece of toast. One of the comfiest snacks.

What are some other good canned fish to get into? Just tried some mackerel today for the first time. It was good but a little dry unlike sardines. Almost kind of like canned salmon.

>>19819151
I'd also like to know

I got some canned octopus recently, excellent and incredibly nutritious

>>19801854
With crackers usually, and some whiskey.

>>19812135
>Aldi's
It's just "Aldi". People who say "Aldi's" drive me nuts.

>>19814243
Crown prince does korean oysters smoked in turkish olive oil, chinese produce can suck my dick they make a lot of good stuff but produce is not one.

>>19816043
I had a few bad cans from brunswick a few years ago and went to king oscar, but nowdays brunswick are really good so I eat both. I love the big fat brunswick ones but king oscar wood smoked are damn delicious.

>>19819684
>"Aldi's" drive me nuts
You can suck on Aldi's nuts

>>19801186
I can only find the smoked Polar's with the transparent top. I like them a lot. Don't care if it's "fake" smoke, I just like it.

>>19819151
>>19819239
I've been looking to try some eel, but it's mostly from China and that's concerning. Maybe if I could find some Japanese tinned fish I'd spring for it, but fucking paying the bullshit prices on amazon.

Any other else got this on auto-purchase every 3 weeks?

>>19819684
you can help yourself by suckin on Aldi's nutz

>>19819936
I fell asleep before I could post reeee

>>19820101
whats fake about it?
liquid smoke?
>>19820243
nah but i do love that shit
smoked fish are just better than other canned fish

>>19820243
Love them deenz so much

>>19819151
Basically just avoid anything from China/South China Sea and you're good.

For me it's James Deenz

>>19819853
I'm worried that I'll find guts/organs/foreign material in the cavity of the fish which'll prompt me to dissect every fish from then onward.

>>19820112
Do you have a Little Japan in your city? Might be worth checking out a couple markets for tins

OP here, opening up a can of Brunswick
the aroma is intoxicating
very tasty

>>19822358
>city
Y-yeah. Haha, why didn't I think of that...

Tried mackerel for the first time. Not a fan, dry and flakey like tuna

great joke, would make a funny gift.

>>19824186

>>19801186
I enjoy them on a saltine cracker with a bit of yellow mustard on them. Sounds fucked up, but it pairs nicely.

>>19825596
>sounds fucked up
nah dude they come packaged in the stuff
try em some time youll fuckin love em

>>19819239
I used to eat a lot of canned squid, but the last one I had was full of nasty-ass gritty little struvite crystals and now I no longer crave it

just got a few nice jars of Polar, theyve got a good couple servings in them and im looking forward to having them more available for snacking without having to commit to opening a whole can

>>19824451
Ortiz, a Spanish brand

Ortiz are among my favorite deenz, but the mackerel was bleh

>>19825713
>struvite
u wot m8. I googled and the top result is kidney stones?

my snack

>>19827109
This is simply sensational. Good job anon

Don't mind em but
>eat a can for lunch
>acid reflux, warm stomach, and sardine flavored burps until midnight

>>19814458
based Polar Kipper Snacks appreciator.

>>19827060
From the USDA site:
>Canned seafood occasionally contains small fragments of a glass-like substance. According to the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), these crystals pose no danger to consumers. Known chemically as magnesium ammonium phosphate, commonly called "struvite," the crystals can form from certain natural constituents of the fish or shellfish after they are commercially canned.

>>19829121
sorry to hear that

Aren't they all filled with microplastics? Any recs for buying non-contamined deenz?

>>19829908
Deenz and other small fish are generally the safest to eat since they are lower on the food chain. Larger fish like swordfish and red snapper are more contaminated with mercury and other toxins, because it accumulates in their flesh from eating smaller fish. Also, the ocean is actually overpopulated with small fish right now since retards back in the 70s and 80s overfished the bigger species that would normally eat the smaller ones. This is bad since those smaller fish eat zooplankton that normally keep algae in check.

ate king oscars med style deenz as a snack it was very yummy

are deenz the healthiest fish?

these are good
3 whole big boys the size of your thumb and taste clean
I really like the packaging too
Not bad for $2

>>19831403

>>19830029
>sardines had the highest concentration of microplastics, predominantly polyethylene
>https://cen.acs.org/environment/pollution/Measuring-microplastics-seafood/98/web/2020/08

>>19831457
FUD

>>19831457
wtf I hate sardines now

plastic lasts forever
therefore if i am mostly microplastics via consuption of deenz then i will live forever

>>19831457
I tried clicking the link to the actual study, but it was broken. I just wonder if they tested actual Mediterranean sardines or Pacific "sardines" since the two universities that collaborated on the study were based in the UK and Australia.
>A 100 g serving of sardines could potentially have 30 mg of microplastics, their analysis showed. Squid had the lowest concentration, 0.7 mg per 100 g serving. The team found polyvinylchloride in all the samples and polypropylene in all the foods except oysters. The other three polymers were found in sardines and crabs.
So are we switching to canned squid now?

what do you guys like for other canned seafood
and is there anywhere online i can buy in semi bulk?

>>19833354
>what do you guys like for other canned seafood
Smoked herring filets AKA kippers and oysters are my latest buys.
>and is there anywhere online i can buy in semi bulk?
Amazon and World Market

>>19833362
do you ever get the weird stuff
goose barnacles and razor clams and the like

>>19833390
No I haven't been that adventurous yet. Some of the weirder stuff can get pretty expensive, and deenz are cheap. I was looking up tinned squid because of >>19831457 link and it's like $6 per can on the low end.

>>19833480
even for jumbo? that's crazy

>>19801186
fuck em, unless I get them on sale. I'm not paying twice the fucking price for these things compared to a couple of years ago. I'll wait till prices come down to normal before buying these.

>>19801186
when it comes to deenz.... you can't beat picrel. most likely you can't afford them tho. sorry bros.

>>19833480
>$6 per can on the low end.
Even Dani? I can pick that up from specialties stores in aus for $3-6 aud and it's really tasty despite being in sunflower oil. There is John west squid (in olive oil) for $4-5 aud in coles/woolies but that's shit.

>>19833362
Gonna try some kippers this week. Don't expect much but maybe they are good.

>>19814758
The Brunswick ones I have access to are not smoked but instead just have smoke flavour.

>>19835285
There are cheaper ones from Spain like Goya and Vigo but they're all in sunflower oil. I guess sunflower oil isn't as bad for you as other sneed oils though, so maybe I'll go for it.
