1️⃣ Prepare the Anchovies 🐟

Rinse the anchovy fillets thoroughly under cold water. Remove any remaining bones if needed. Pat dry gently with paper towels β€” careful handling keeps them tender.

2️⃣ Make the Vinegar Marinade 🧴

In a glass or ceramic dish, lay the anchovy fillets in a single layer. Pour over the vinegar and water mixture, making sure the fillets are fully covered. Cover and refrigerate for at least 12 hours, until the flesh turns white and opaque.

3️⃣ Drain and Dry ❄️

Drain the anchovies and pat them lightly dry with paper towels. Transfer them to a clean dish for final seasoning.
