This Sardines and Crackers appetizer proves that sometimes the simplest combinations create the most memorable bites. Wild Planet sustainable sardines in extra virgin olive oil get paired with creamy herbed cheese, sweet dried cranberries, and aromatic rosemary for a flavor profile that balances rich, tangy, sweet, and herbaceous notes. The pinch of chili flakes adds just enough heat to wake up your palate without overwhelming the delicate sardines. It's an elegant no-cook appetizer that comes together in minutes but tastes like you put in serious effort.
