Norwegian mackerel is prized for its high natural oil content, which gives it a rich, full flavour and silky texture. These slices are prepared ready to eat and cut to the ideal size for sushi, so you can lay them straight onto rice for mackerel nigiri, one of the most traditional toppings at any sushi bar. Mackerel is also naturally rich in omega-3.
Each 160g pack holds 20 slices, serving 1 to 2 people.
Defrost in the fridge and serve chilled. For nigiri, lay a slice over sushi rice and top with a little grated ginger and spring onion, which balance mackerel's richness. For a smoky twist, blowtorch the skin side for a few seconds (aburi style). The slices also work well in salads, rice bowls or on rye bread.
All our seafood is frozen to lock in quality from sea to doorstep. Keep frozen until needed and defrost in the fridge before serving. Once defrosted, eat within 24 hours and don't refreeze. Free delivery Tuesday to Friday on orders over £75, or collect from us if you're near South Ruislip.
Why is mackerel served with ginger?
Ginger's sharpness cuts through mackerel's natural oiliness and refreshes the palate, which is why sushi chefs pair the two.
Are they ready to eat?
Yes, simply defrost and serve.
