Scomber japonicus
Also known as Chub Mackerel, Spanish Mackerel
Mackerel is a delicious fish packed with omega-3 fatty acids. The easiest way to cook it is to leave it whole and grill or bake it in the oven. Mackerel has a firm texture (think canned tuna) and can be used in the kitchen almost any way! Use it as the protein in a salad, grill it with a side of vegetables and rice, or toss it in a sandwich with a lemon aioli.
Sustainability status for this species is published by NOAA Fisheries.
Safe to eat raw?
Mackerel is rarely consumed raw to avoid food poisoning by a tummy-unfriendly parasite. We recommend eating it cooked.
