NOTES:

  1. Sardines:

      These should be 3-1/2 to 4 ounce cans packed with plain oil. Please no Moroccan sardines. You may not be able to get the very desirable Norwegian sardines, but decent sardines from just about anywhere are better than Moroccan. I use Bumblebee brand sardines from Poland which are very good and widely available here in Southern California. For details see our Canned Sardines page.

  2. Horseradish:

      This is best made fresh (see our instructions Horseradish & Sauces) but a prepared horseradish containing only horseradish, water and acid will work.
  3. U.S. measure: t=teaspoon, T=Tablespoon, c=cup, qt=quart, oz=ounce, #=pound, cl=clove in=inch, ar=as required tt=to taste
