About Mackerel paste

Mackerel Paste is a flavorful spread typically made from smoked or cooked mackerel blended with ingredients like cream cheese, butter, herbs, and seasonings. Originating from European and Scandinavian cuisines, it is a versatile condiment often enjoyed on bread, crackers, or as a dip. Mackerel is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which are known to support heart and brain health, as well as high-quality protein for sustained energy. It also contains essential vitamins like B12 and D, along with selenium, an important antioxidant. However, depending on the recipe, some mackerel paste varieties may include added salt or saturated fats from dairies, which should be consumed in moderation for a balanced diet. A convenient and nutrient-packed option, it offers both indulgent flavor and health benefits when eaten responsibly as part of a diverse meal plan.
