They aren't fermented as canned anchovies are, just dried, so they aren't

near as " flavorful " ;--) One Korean recipe I found, you soak them, then sautee

them in oil, then cover with a spicy sauce and eat on rice. Me, I nibble on them

dry when I'm hungry. Very, very filling, a bit bitter (I like bitter!). One guy,

when

I was buying them, looked at me surprised and said " Ahh! Good snack!!! " . So I

guess I'm not the only one who uses them for munchies. You can also stir

them into kimchi, but those little eyes just make people nervous, so I run

them through the blender first.
