A 1kg pack of whole round wild sprats — individually frozen, caught in the North-East Atlantic. Sprats are the underrated British seaside fish: tiny, sweet, oily-rich, and at their best when treated simply. A staple of Latvian, Baltic and traditional British seaside cookery, with a flavour that’s genuinely unlike anything else in the sea.
