About Mackerel pate

Mackerel pâté is a creamy spread made primarily from smoked or cooked mackerel, blended with ingredients like cream cheese, butter, or crème fraîche, alongside lemon juice, mustard, and herbs such as parsley or dill. Originating from European cuisine, particularly British and French recipes, this savory dish is a popular appetizer or snack, often served with toast or crackers. Rich in omega-3 fatty acids, mackerel pâté supports heart health and brain function. It's also packed with protein, essential vitamins like B12, and minerals such as selenium. However, its high fat content, especially from added dairy and mackerel itself, makes it a calorie-dense option, which might be a concern for those monitoring fat intake. Additionally, some varieties may contain high levels of sodium due to the inclusion of smoked fish or seasoning. Enjoyed in moderation, mackerel pâté can be a flavorful and nutritious complement to a balanced diet.
