This mackerel is absolutely delicious. It is extremely flavorful and dense in meat. I can hardly believe it was frozen. It doesn't taste fishy and the skin is super tasty. Make sure to cure it with salt and marinate overnight to bring out the best flavors!

My sister said it was good for dinner.

One pack contains three strips. I took one strip. I kept the first half to make miso soup later. I added tofu and cooked the second half today. It was delicious braised; the meat was tender and not fishy at all. I'm addicted to it and will definitely buy it again.
weee.9347193
It's all cleaned. Two pounds, three fish, great value!
巧儿
I cooked this fresh lapu‑lapu into sweet and sour, and it was my very first time trying that recipe. The result was amazing — the fish’s freshness really stood out, giving the dish a clean, tender flavor that balanced perfectly with the tangy sauce. My son loved it so much, which says a lot about the quality of the fish. The meat stayed moist, absorbed the flavors beautifully, and turned a simple experiment into a new family favorite. Definitely worth buying if you want seafood that’s versatile, fresh, and guaranteed to impress.

Yummy fish. Pickled fish.
