Anchovies

Anchovies are an edible seafood item available to non-members as well as members. Eating anchovies heals 10 life points, which is less even than eating shrimp, a lower level fish.

Any player may cook raw anchovies on a range or fire to gain 30 Cooking experience points, as level 1 Cooking is the only requirement. Players stop burning them at level 34 cooking. These are also one of the few food items which are worth more cooked than raw, so it is profitable to cook them. By themselves, anchovies have limited utility in training Cooking or for restoring life points, especially for higher-levelled players.

However, they have two uses which support their higher price cooked.
 * 1) They are an ingredient for the popular anchovy pizzas, which players can make at level 55 Cooking and which heal 180 life points each, making them the highest-healing food available to non-members.
 * 2) Anchovy oil, obtained by mashing anchovies with a pestle and mortar and straining the resultant anchovy paste with a sieve, is an ingredient in imp repellent, which in turn can be distilled to make impling jars from butterfly jars.

Raw anchovies can be caught using a small net at any net fishing spot.
