Mackerel fillets in olive oil 150g (glass jar)

These mackerel fillets in olive oil are part of the 'Riserva Famiglia Parodi' selection and are immediately recognisable on the palate for their clean flavour and meat that remains pleasantly firm on tasting. Mackerel is an oily fish rich in essential fatty acids such as omega-3.

The historic Genoese company 'Angelo Parodi' has been trading in fish in oil since 1888 and has all the experience to always make the right choice when it comes to the sea: its jars of mackerel are handmade in Portugal, a country with a great tradition of fish preserves, using only fresh mackerel caught locally.

How to use mackerel in oil in the kitchen: easy recipes and ideas

Mackerel fillets in oil are great for a quick and practical meal, thanks to the glass jar that makes it easy to store after opening: if you don't eat it all, you can easily store it in the fridge and finish it after a few days. These fillets are good to enjoy with a light side dish, accompanied by sauces such as mayonnaise, salsa verde or a rocket pesto, while in salads they are a great idea for your lunch break, together with potatoes and green beans or boiled cereals such as white rice, spelt or barley. 

Their firm flesh makes them excellent for creating gourmet seafood sandwiches and fish burgers. They go well with herbs such as basil, marjoram, parsley and thyme.

They can also be chosen as a condiment with pasta, and mackerel goes very well with peppers or aubergines - even in a red sauce such as caponata - or with peas and green beans. Mackerel fillets in oil are also excellent with summer vegetable soups, which can be added when serving. For appetisers, they make an ideal base ingredient for fried meatballs, flans, stuffed tomatoes - or chillies - and phyllo dough dumplings.
