About this item
Horse mackerel, known in Japan as aji, is a small silver fish with a bright, clean flavour and a firm, oily texture that keeps well on the heat. Each fish is landed, gutted and frozen quickly, so the skin stays shiny and the flesh stays tight rather than turning soft. The oil content makes it forgiving: it browns beautifully in a pan and holds up over charcoal. Eat it grilled with salt, fried until the bones crisp, cured in vinegar, or sliced raw when very fresh.
