Good question! If you want to use large anchovies to make myeolchibokkeum, you will need to remove the bones from each anchovy. Split it lengthwise by pressing with your fingers and then take out the bone. Good luck!

I just made it and the anchovies were just fine in terms of size :) they were crispy and spicy and very good- i used a corn pick to remove the guts because i kept breaking them when I used my fingers.

The anchovies that I have are between the size of the big ones and medium ones. Would they be too big for this recipe? If so, are there any other uses for the big/medium-big anchovies besides making stock or soup?
I won’t lie… I’m a little scared of the anchovies- this is my first time using them and they sense my fear… they keep looking at me! lol.

yeah it contains lots of calcium so it’s one of the most popular side dishes that Korean mom makes for their children’s lunch box. I hope Nick likes it.

“No problem if she doesn’t. I loved it” : ) Give it to her 1 tiny anchovy first and let her taste it. If she says, “not bad!” and then encourage her to eat more.. lol “ow ow my baby loves anchovies!”
