Mackerel

Mackerel, a pelagic commercial fish of the family Scombridae (Scomber japonicus or Scomber scombrus), has a spindle-shaped body measuring 20-50 cm in length. It features a blue-green back with dark irregular markings and a silvery-white belly. The meat is rich in protein and omega-3 fatty acids (DHA/EPA), offering high nutritional value. With firm texture and rich flavor, mackerel is ideal for fresh consumption, salting, grilling, or canning, making it a key species in global seafood markets.
