Product description

Whole horse mackerel split open, lightly salted, and dried overnight in the traditional ichiyaboshi style — just enough to firm the flesh and concentrate its natural sweetness. Grill until the skin blisters and crisps and the flesh turns opaque and flaky. A quintessential breakfast fish, best with hot rice, grated daikon, and a splash of soy sauce.

  • Thaw in the refrigerator; never thaw at room temperature.
