Thank you for a easy, tasty tutorial! It has been many years since I have eaten grilled mackerel. I made this today on the grill and without the added salt. I also marinated it in mirin and lime juice instead of sake since I had none on hand. It was exceptional and was a big hit with guests alongside grilled bok choy and rice!

[@SudachiRecipes]

Thank you for sharing your experience! I'm glad to hear that it was a big hit! :)

[@diegomeijia6115]

Thank you chef Yuto. This is my favorite Japanese dish ❤❤❤

[@SudachiRecipes]

Thank you very much for the nice comment!

[@swatipiyu]

Wow such a simple delicious one love japnese food 😊

[@SudachiRecipes]

Thank you 😋

[@user-xt8ze9ct5u]

wow

[@RhonaAlmayda]

This was my favorite hospital dish in Japan! I've been craving it for months already. Thank you chef for sharing! By the way, may I know what sake I should use? Can I use Mirin instead?

[@SudachiRecipes]

Thank you for the comment! The best sake to use here is a cheap junmai (pure) drinking sake. This is an optional bonus ingredient, so you can omit the process if it's hard to get, but I don't recommend using mirin instead here! I hope this answer helps! :)

[@eri7-11]

Lovely! What other types of wildcaught Japanese fish are good to cook this way? Is it a pain to clean the grill after? Thanks.

[@SudachiRecipes]

Thank you for the comment! Salmon, yellowtail, saury, cod would be good options, and I have separate recipes for salmon (sudachirecipes.com/japanese-salted-salmon-shiozake/) and saury (sudachirecipes.com/sanma-no-shioyaki/) if interested. As for cleaning, it really depends on what type of grill you use, but if you have one like in this video, it's not hard to clean up.

Hi I have a ninja foodi 6 in 1 indoor grill, do you think I should use air fryer function or grill function or broil function, and what temperature or minutes? Thank you

[@SudachiRecipes]

Hi, thank you for your comment. I have no personal experience with this or similar products, so it will be a total guess, but I believe that the broil function might be the most suitable option. So, I cannot provide exact temperature and cooking time recommendations as well. However, as a reference, when cooking this type of fillet fish in a toaster oven, it is typically cooked at 220°C (428°F) for approximately 10 minutes.

[@crazycritick]

Will any Sake work or is a specific one recommended for flavor profile?

[@SudachiRecipes]

Pure rice sake (junmai shu) will be the best!

[@PemikaJantawong]

After marinating and freezing, will the fish be delicious? Make a lot of it.

[@SudachiRecipes]

I personally wouldn't recommend it!

[@cookhands]

Very goood❤❤❤❤

[@SudachiRecipes]

Thank you!

[@y-n0t294]

Can i cooki it on griddle?

[@SudachiRecipes]

I don't own a griddle, but you can probably use the same steps until the cooking part. However, you may need to adjust the cooking time and method from there.

[@mamacocooo]

Hi. Can this be done the same way in an air fryer?

[@SudachiRecipes]

Hi, thank you for the comment! I don't own air fryers, so I can't say for sure, but it should work in theory!

[@chrisfrank4267]

No it's horrible you need a smoky grill for the best resui

[@moist_onions]

It’s possible, get the smoky flavor from smoked salt instead of regular during the preparation.

[@LittleMopeHead]

I cooked mackerels a lot with my air fryer. Simple salt and pepper style, no issues. Just missing the smokey flavor that's all.

[@dayanatojannah]

Can i pan grill it 😅

[@SudachiRecipes]

Hi, thank you for your question! You can cook in a pan. Just remember to adjust the cooking time and use oil.

i always wanted to know one thing... do japanese people really eat fish bones and fish head? sometimes i see in anime or drama how people just bite into a whole fish. that wasn't deboned... and they even bite into the head. and i mean... into the head. no picking the flesh out of the heat, but really opening the mouth and shoving the whole head into it.... is this actually a thing? do i also need to do it? am i considered impolite if i don#t eat the fish until nothings left?

[@SudachiRecipes]

Thanks for your question! I can confirm that it's not a thing in real life! In Japan, it is certainly very unusual to eat fish heads or bones in their entirety. When a whole fish is prepared, it is usually served with the head intact, but we don't eat the head, and we use chopsticks to remove the bones. This is considered perfectly acceptable and not rude. I hope this answer helps clarify things for you!

[@Kokujou5]

@@SudachiRecipes oh thank god. i was really insecure about that, and i know that fish bones do have a strong taste to them, so something like hone senbei i would even be curious about but i wouldn't like to eat them like that, especially as most of the bones are quite small and so they scratch the inside of your mouth which is always irritating me ^^ now i feel relieved :) thank you!
