Delicious smoked mackerel with delicious sauce
Overview
When the Spanish mackerel was on the market, I bought a 10-pound mackerel and made mackerel dumplings to eat. The rest was frozen in the refrigerator. The fish was too big and I couldn't finish it several times. This time I made smoked mackerel. The sour, spicy, sweet and crispy mackerel I made is particularly delicious. You can eat it as a snack with nothing. It is a must for the whole family to get together and drink some wine during the Chinese New Year, so this smoked mackerel dish is the best side dish to drink with wine. It is guaranteed to be popular and appetizing! In particular, I want to say that the ingredients used here are all in appropriate amounts, and there is no specific weighing, because the main ingredients will increase or decrease accordingly. Every time I make it, I always estimate the amount. I can’t add the seasonings in one go. I just add them based on experience. If it’s not enough, I’ll add more. For example, I cooked a lot of fish this time and added the stuffing several times until I was satisfied. The specific amount cannot be measured. Besides, the seasoning of pickled things like this is all based on personal preference, and there is no need to be very precise. As long as the fish ingredients are mixed evenly, it will be OK.
