What is Awaji Island Spanish Mackerel!

Spanish mackerel, like yellowtail, is famous as a "success fish. In the Goshiki area of Sumoto City on Awaji Island, fresh Spanish mackerel sashimi and tataki have long graced the tables of fishermen. The season for Spanish mackerel on Awaji Island is from spring to fall. Springtime Spanish mackerel is very special when eaten with mako (roe) and shirako (milt). The autumn Spanish mackerel is called "Kan-Sawa" (Spanish Mackerel in the cold), and its fatty flesh is enough to make even the most discerning gourmand gasp in anticipation of the winter. Uzuno-oka Restaurant offers a seasonal menu featuring Spanish mackerel from Awaji Island.
