Sawara or the Spanish Mackerel, goes by many Japanese names depending on the season and its size. The fish is also believed to be an auspicious sign as it ushers in spring! Although it is a mackerel, it has beautiful white flesh without the red parts common in others and is considered the best mackerel due to its rich but not overpowering flavour, commonly attributed to it feeding on sardines and saury. Sawara can be enjoyed as sashimi but is delicious when lightly seared as well.
