King Mackerel is superb fish, great value, readily available and yet amazingly underrated. King mackerel has a bullet shaped body with silvery-blue skin and attractive, dark wavy stripes. In Vietnam, King Mackerel were caught all year round. In the north, the main season is from April to July and in the south, the main season is from September to April. Vietnam has mainly exported frozen King Mackerel to Japan market, but in recent years, this valuable fish also appears in export containers to US and EU markets.
King Mackerel is one of the richest sources of marine Omega-3, King mackerel has white flesh with a rich flavour, which is best grilled or baked.
We sell small King mackerel whole and divide larger one into steaks and fillets.
King Mackerel flesh is thick, fatty and savory, and you can use a variety of cooking methods to prepare a delicious king mackerel meal. Any sauce should be sharp to complement its rich flavour – try gooseberry, sorrel, rhubarb, cranberry, redcurrant or mustard and avoid anything creamy or buttery. Marinating in citrus juices is also good.
King Mackerel is highly rated in Japanese cuisine, where whole fish are marinated in soy before grilling or griddling – definitely worth trying. As with most oily fish, it is good for smoking, and makes a great paté.
King Mackerel steak can be cooked with sauce which is quite common dish in Asian meal. Place the King Mackerel steak into the pan, and allow it to cook for several minutes on each side. Season the fish to taste with salt, pepper, and other desired seasonings. You can squeeze over some lemon juice.
