These small, whole fish do not come deboned or gutted. Fresh anchovies are a completely different taste experience than canned, salted anchovies with which most people are familiar
After deboning and gutting (which is a much simpler process than it would appear), they are delicious brined and marinated in olive oil, lemon juice and garlic (as Boquerones). They can also be delicately pan fried, breaded and deep fried, or used directly in a tomato sauce or on a pizza.
