If you want to give tinned sardines a try, start with Alton Brown's sardine avocado sandwich. Its composition will give you a milder introduction to sardines’ strong fishy flavor.
The fatty, muted, mildly nutty avocado tames the fish in this open-faced sandwich. Meanwhile, the crunchy, toasted bread contrasts with the creamy avocado and the soft, meaty fish.
Brown tops the sandwich with a garnish made of sardine oil, vinegar, parsley, and lemon. It adds flavor complexity and brightness while complementing that strong sardine undertone.
