Mackerel is prepared using traditional methods: the fillets are delicately hand-cleaned and packed in olive oil, which gives them a mild flavor and a delicate texture. An ideal ingredient in the Mediterranean diet.
Mackerel (Scombrus colias) is a medium-sized fish that moves in numerous schools and is recognizable by its greenish stripes on its back.
They require rigorous processing. We cook our Mackerel and clean its loins very carefully to finally pack it with care in olive oil.
Once opened, in order to maintain its flavor for up to 2 days, we recommend keeping the mackerel in the refrigerator, preferably covered and completely submerged in olive oil, adding more if necessary.
Mackerel is an oily fish full of health benefits:
It is packed in olive oil, rich in oleic acid, which helps regulate harmful levels of cholesterol in the blood.
Do you want to surprise your guests? They surely won’t be expecting a Southern Mackerel dish. Straight from the jar to the plate is delicious, but if you’re looking for a badge of honor, use your imagination. Mackerel is much more commonly used in countries such as Italy. You can use it to add a twist to dishes such as salmorejo, escalivada or serve it with some wild rice…
