Kim Dae-seok's Mackerel Stew

A mackerel stew that reduces fishy odor using vinegar and salt brining, ensuring the flesh stays intact and doesn't easily fall apart during cooking.

Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Remove the gills and blood clots from the mackerel completely and wash thoroughly to minimize fishy odor.
  • After salting the mackerel for 30 minutes, pat dry—it will become firmer and less likely to break apart during cooking.
  • Cooking the radish first before adding the mackerel allows the vegetable to soften gradually while the fish cooks.

Recommended for

  • Those who find it difficult to control the fishy smell when making fish stews at home.
  • People looking to create a hearty main dish with tender radish infused with rich flavor and chewy mackerel flesh packed with seasoning.
