| 1. Wash the mackerel in water.
Cut into fillets and remove the small bones in the belly. Split the head
in half and cut off the gills and fins. Chop the spine into a few pieces.
Sprinkle a relatively large amount of salt on all the pieces, and leave
for one hour. |
2. Wash off the salt and wipe
off the water. Remove the small bones from the blood-coloured part with
tweezers and divide the fillets into quarters. |
3. Place the fillets in a bowl,
and the head and bony parts in another bowl. Pour hot water into both bowls
and stir gently. When the surface turns white, place them in cold water
and drain. |
