Small, silvery fish that are usually cured with salt. Many are then tightly packed with oil in flat two-ounce tins, but salt-cured anchovies are also available. These should be rinsed, and may need to be filleted before using.
Most commonly available filleted and packed either flat in 2-ounce cans or upright in jars. (Don’t use fillets wrapped around capers.) I prefer the hand-filleted Ortiz Spanish anchovies, which are meaty and not very salty. They come in 4-ounce tins and are available in specialty-food shops or by mail order. If you use only chopped anchovies, and not very often, anchovy paste in tubes may be more appropriate. It lasts several months in the refrigerator.

Anchovies are canned fish. They are not a real species of fish, but rather a collaberation of alot of smaller fishes.
It's usually in a can, in some sort of oil or water.
