Home-style braised mackerel

Overview

My mother cooked the most Spanish mackerel when I was young. Whether it was stewed in pieces or whole, the three of us, my siblings, all enjoyed eating it. The meat of Spanish mackerel has fewer thorns, is delicate, delicious, and nutritious. It is rich in protein, vitamin A, and minerals (mainly calcium). What’s more, the Spanish mackerel is not expensive, so we, who were not rich in our childhood, could eat it once in a while. In the winter, when we finished the stewed mackerel, the mackerel soup would freeze in a short time. It was also our favorite. Today’s mackerel jelly was destroyed by me while I was playing with it.
