mackerel salted and semi-dried |
Just learned this method of semi-drying fish
using the fruit drier, very effective to imitate the Japanese "one night
dry" method of preserving fish, for a cured flavor and texture.

Salted and semi-dried, the fish could be
kept for a month in the fridge, but I keep them in the freezer instead for
longer storage.
Some are simply salted in brine and frozen.

Brine
I used a 5% salt solution to soak the filet for 12 hours, the result is less salty than commercial ones which use at least 10% brine.
