Who knew there were anchovies...

in Worcestershire sauce?

I made a pork loin for lunch today and was overwhelmed how much I could smell cloves and citrus.

'Worcestershire sauce is a widely used fermented liquid condiment originally manufactured by Lea & Perrins, in Midland Road, Worcester, England.

The genuine product, manufactured to the original recipe, available in the U.K., comprises malt vinegar (from barley), spirit vinegar, molasses, sugar, salt, anchovies, tamarind extract, onions, garlic, spices, and flavouring.

It is a flavouring used in many dishes, both cooked and uncooked, and particularly with beef.

It is an important ingredient in Caesar salad and in a Bloody Mary. Lea & Perrins supplies it in concentrate form to be bottled abroad.'
