Step by step

Method

  1. 01

    Put a glass of water in the bucket. Add salt, sugar, basil, coriander, cloves, bay leaf and put on fire. Bring all this almost to a boil, as it should be stirred, to the complete dissolution of sugar and salt. Leave to cool to a slightly warm state.

  2. 02

    The mackerel should be washed properly.

  3. 03

    Fish cut off the head and fins. Clean the abdomen of the insides and black film along the spine. Flush again. Cut each mackerel carcass across into portioned pieces.

  4. 04

    Put the fish in a jar layer by layer and pour cooled brine from the bucket.

  5. 05

    I've got a pretty full jar of salt mackerel. Now it must be sent to the refrigerator for a day. This fish is salted very quickly and the next day it can be served to the table.

Ready to serve

Serve the dish as directed and enjoy it while it is at its best.

Bon appétit — enjoy your meal!
