How to Prepare

Salt-grilling / Shioyaki (recommended): Score the fish on both sides, season generously with salt, and grill over medium-high heat for 4–5 minutes per side until lightly charred and cooked through — the classic Japanese saba shioyaki (salt-grilled mackerel) that showcases the fish’s bold, natural flavour at its finest. Serve with grated daikon and soy sauce.
Miso simmering / Saba no Misoni: Braise in a rich white miso, mirin, sake, and ginger sauce for 15–20 minutes for a deeply comforting Japanese saba no misoni — one of the most beloved home-cooked dishes in Japan, perfectly suited to the bold, rich flavour of Iceland Mackerel.
Pan-frying: Pat dry, season with salt and pepper, and pan-fry skin-side down in oil over medium-high heat for 4–5 minutes per side until the skin is golden and crispy — serve with a tangy mustard cream sauce for a French bistro-inspired preparation.
Scandinavian baking: Season with dill, lemon, garlic, and butter, and bake at 200°C for 20–25 minutes — a classic Nordic preparation that pairs beautifully with boiled potatoes and pickled cucumber.
