Description
Frozen Indian Mackerel Whole - Size 6/8 - 1000 g
Indian mackerel is a medium-sized marine fish widespread in the warm waters around South Asia and Southeast Asia, capable of reaching a maximum length of about 35 cm. The fish is sold here in frozen condition as whole, uncleaned specimens – also known as "whole round" – which preserves the fish's natural shape and offers flexibility in preparation. The size designation 6/8 indicates that there are between six and eight fish per kilogram, and the package contains a gross weight of 1 kg with a net weight of 900 grams. Indian mackerel is an oily fish with firm, juicy flesh and a characteristic, strong oceanic flavour that lends itself well to Asian dishes. The fish can be prepared in many ways, including steaming, grilling, pan-frying, or baking in the oven, and it is traditionally used in dishes such as steamed mackerel rice, dried salted mackerel, and as a base ingredient in homemade fish sauce. The flesh has a firm texture that holds its shape well during cooking, and its natural fattiness provides a rich and full-bodied taste experience. The fish is caught in the Indian Ocean, FAO Zone 51, and is frozen and produced in accordance with EU approval number 1274. The package is suitable for freezer storage and should be kept frozen until use. Indian mackerel is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and minerals such as manganese and selenium, contributing to a varied and nutritious diet. The product is aimed at consumers interested in Asian cuisine, seafood, and healthy protein sources.
