Mackerel with Pink Pepper and Lime today, a bluefish recipe that’s very healthy and also economical! The mackerel or scomber or horse mackerel is a bluefish highly appreciated in cooking for its beneficial omega 3 fatty acids.
Its consumption has increased significantly and it is considered a fish at risk of extinction, with ongoing strategies for sustainable fishing among European Community countries like Scotland and Ireland, and non-member countries like Iceland. The mackerel with its fatty acids reduces cholesterol concentration and protects against cardiovascular diseases.
These fish are not farmed so they do not contain pharmacological residues, and since they have a short life they are unable to accumulate high doses of mercury, unlike large fish.
I also recommend these mackerel recipes and other types of bluefish:
Grilled Mackerel with Tomatoes;
Filamentous Aromatic Sardines;
Grilled Red Mullets with Fennel
