What Is Mediterranean Mackerel?
Mackerel is an oily fish valued throughout Mediterranean cuisine for its pronounced flavor and naturally rich flesh. Known as sgombro in Italy, it has long been enjoyed in coastal communities, where it is grilled, baked, marinated and preserved.
Compared with more delicate white fish, mackerel has a fuller, more savory taste that stands up beautifully to bright ingredients such as lemon, tomatoes, capers and fresh herbs.

The fish is carefully selected, gently cooked and preserved in olive oil to maintain its natural flavor and texture.
