About Mackerel

One of the most nutritious fish in the sea and one of the most beautiful — iridescent blue-green tiger stripes that shimmer. An oily fish with rich, bold flavour that stands up to smoking, grilling, and strong accompaniments like mustard, horseradish, and beetroot. Incredibly sustainable and British.

Why Chefs Love It

  • One of the most sustainable fish — fast-growing, abundant in British waters
  • The bold flavour means it pairs with strong accompaniments that would overpower delicate fish
  • Line-caught mackerel is a powerful provenance story for your menu
  • V-boned fillets available for quick prep — 80g per fillet, ideal for starters
