Fun Fact
Because Mackerel is highly perishable, vendors in London as early as 1698 were permitted to sell them on Sundays, when all trade was otherwise prohibited.
Product Preparation
Bake, broil, steam, smoke, poach, or fry Spanish Mackerel either whole or filleted. But they really shine when grilled whole! Match them with soy based marinades, zesty tomato sauces, and complex Mexican moles.
Product Nutrition
