anchovy Explanation: I had looked up some Japanese sight, some shop in Japan use anchovy for Pizza Capricciosa, Marinara (we love fish!) and they call them "Napoli Pizza!". Also, in the sentence you gave, it said 鰻の稚魚のような. I had wondered whether the writer had mixed the words up... Both いわしの稚魚 and うなぎの稚魚is called SHIRASU しらす（ちりめんじゃこ） in Japanese but in Spanish dish, うなぎの稚魚 is baby eel (Angulas) so I am not sure which one goes with the text but hope it helped!

Sardine Fry Explanation: This is probably a sardine fry as anchovies are specifically referred to in Japanese as anchovies. But I have included the following to clarify what a sardine is... For you information: A sardine can be almost any small, fatty fish, but most often is related to the herring ... in Scotland are the sprat or brisling (both Clupea sprattus); in Spain and the Mediterranean, it's the round sardinella (Sardinella aurita); in Norway, it's a sild (any of several species of small herring); and in England and much of the rest of Europe, the young of the pilchard (Sardina pilchardus) ... in North America, cans juvenile Clupea harengus, otherwise known as Atlantic herring. Anchovy and sardine both belong to the herring family. Sardine is not a name for one fish but a collective term for a number of small soft-boned species in the herring family. The word sardine came from the original canning of the small fish in Sardinia. Anchovies are usually smaller than sardines and also different in their jaw structure. The lower jaw of sardine protrudes farther out than the upper jaw. This is reverse for the anchovy. I hope this doesn't confuse you too much.
