One of our favourite and easy sources of protein is fish and it tops the list of the most versatile foods for all seasons. And the one particular fish that everyone likes on a warm day is mackerel. It is easily available, inexpensive and the most sustainable seafood available. No just that, it is ranked as the Best choice by Environmental Defence Fund. We all should be getting two servings of fish per week and one of the servings has to be of a fatty fish like mackerel. It is loaded with nutrients like omega 3 that help to lower blood pressure and increase the good cholesterol in the body. It is an easy dinner option and upon cooking it tastes like steak. If you are not able to find fresh mackerel then Tinned Mackerel are a great option for you. Mackerels are incredible for stuffing and grilling or for that matter sautés. It can be eaten in many different ways, as salad, grilled, in curry and whatever creative way you come up with. Since mackerels are oily so you can use all your cooking skills to enhance its taste by adding lime juice or topping it off with tahini etc. Even the leftovers make a great mix in for your lentils or with omelette for breakfast.
If someone is unsure about the whole fish-in-tin, then canned mackerels are the best choice as they are oily and if prepared in olive oil they turn luscious and taste better than tuna and other such fishes that let out the distinct fish odour.
One of the best suppliers of mackerels in the Australian grocery market is HiLands Foods who provide Tahi Mackerel. They have the freshest and most tender mackerel. Their tinned mackerels come with flavour that is milder than sardines and anchovies and include a whole lot of good umami. As a beginner you can swap chicken or tuna with mackerels in salads or sandwiches. They are a perfect snack option and way healthier than the regular processed snacks available in the market.
