Any links to recipes where you dont need a grill? Sadly I live in an apartment and we are not allowed them.

I live in Denver and H-Mart near Havanna and Parker Road has sardines. It is a giant Asian market. The fish counter is some of the best quality and price and the fish mongers will prepare the fish for you for no charge (e.g. remove the head and guts, fillet or chop.)

I’ve been reading a lot about grilled Sardines in Steven Raichlen’s BBQ Planet book and just did them. Yum.

I too am looking for Omega-3 rich fish.

@Kim at Rustic Garden Bistro, No, I haven't! I've heard it's good though! Sounds like we need to plan a trip... :)

That takes me home. It is very similar to tuyo, which is also salted but the cooked until quite tough. It was eaten with rice, or used as a condiment much like saltfish is. We even sometimes put it on top of sweet chocolate porridge!

I ate something very similar in Malawi – they were called Usipa. They were cooked in many, many ways — but my favorite was salted and roasted/grilled. SO delicious. We ate them heads, bones, tails and all! Great memory.
