How to cook it
-
Score the mackerel skin lightly in a few diagonal cuts and pat dry.
-
Salt both sides generously and let it sit 10 minutes so the salt draws out surface moisture.
-
Pat dry again, brush lightly with oil, and grill or pan-sear skin-side down over medium-high heat for 5 minutes until the skin crisps.
-
Flip and cook 4 minutes more until the flesh flakes easily, then serve hot, the plainest and most everyday of Korean fish dinners.
