  • Let’s Cook: Fried Spanish Mackerel with Spicy Miso Sauce
  • Also called Tanigue in Filipino, Spanish Mackerel is a beautiful oily fish with a firm, dark flesh that is fatty and rich with a strong, sweet flavor. The high fat content of its meat is a great source of omega-3 fatty acids. It can be cooked in many different ways, but locals tend to eat it simply as it is, grilled, or in soups.

    For variety, Chef Takashi will be teaching you his addictingly spicy take on this fish.
