Sardine
Fleet at Skala Kaloni The snack of choice with ouzo is Sardeles Pastes.
These are the sardines that have been caught that morning, salted on the
boat and served that night. To eat them the skin is removed and they are
seasoned with oil, lemon or whatever your host prefers to season them with
(though some eat them totally unseasoned). The best sardines come from the
large bay of Kaloni where the main sardine fleet is based in Skala. But
some argue that the sardines from the gulf of Yera are smaller and better.
It just depends upon who you ask, like most things in Greece.
