Cooking tips

  • Do not split the belly of the fresh mackerel when cutting it into pieces—this prevents the fish from falling apart or becoming mushy during cooking.
  • Marinating the fish with sea salt for 30 minutes before cooking helps firm up the flesh and allows the seasoning to penetrate the interior.
  • Pre-cooking the radish with soy sauce broth for 10 minutes ensures it’s properly softened and helps reduce overall cooking time while deepening the flavor.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make a fresh mackerel stew with no fishy smell and well-penetrated seasoning throughout the fish.
  • People looking for a nourishing main side dish packed with fluffy potatoes and sweet, tender radish.
