Bread, tomatoes, salt…name me a more iconic trio for a snack in the sunshine.
Toasted sourdough, a smear of homemade Gentleman’s Relish (snigger), dangerously ripe and squishy tomato, white anchovies and an obnoxious amount of EVO. I don’t know what kind of tear-inducing magic is in Gentleman’s Relish but here’s my guess. Make it and thank me later.

I don’t know what kind of tear-inducing magic is in Gentleman’s Relish but here’s my guess.
Ingredients
100 g butter, softened
1 tin anchovy fillets
1 garlic clove
1 tsp capers
1/4 small lemon
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
Pinch pepper
Directions
- Add the anchovy fillets (including the oil), garlic clove, capers, lemon juice, cayenne pepper and black pepper to a food processor. Blitz to a smooth paste.
- Mix the softened butter into the salty mixture and spoon into a sterilised jar. Keep in the fridge. Stir through pasta, season sauces with it or simple serve on hot toast. Use sparingly.
