Smoked mackerel is made from mackerel, a sleek, oily fish with blue-green tiger stripes that swims in shoals around the Cornish coast. The fillets are hot-smoked, so they are fully cooked and ready to eat straight from the pack. The peppered version comes coated in cracked black pepper.
The flesh is rich, moist and smoky, flaking easily with a fork. It is a handy fridge standby: eat it cold with salad, warm it through or blend it into a pâté in a few minutes.
