About Dried mackerel

Dried mackerel is a popular seafood product often used in Asian and Mediterranean cuisines for its bold flavor and versatility. It originates from fresh mackerel, which is salted and dehydrated to enhance preservation and intensify its taste. Rich in protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamins such as B12 and D, dried mackerel supports heart health, brain function, and energy production. Its high iron content also aids in improving circulation and combating fatigue. However, due to the salting process, dried mackerel can be high in sodium, which may pose risks for those monitoring blood pressure or kidney health. Often enjoyed grilled, baked, or rehydrated in soups, it is a nutritious ingredient celebrated for its deep smoky flavor and healthful fats. When consumed in moderation within a balanced diet, dried mackerel can contribute to overall wellness while adding robust flavor to meals.
