Ingredients
- 4 fresh mackerels, each weighing 150g (about 5 ounces)
- 45 ml (3 tablespoons) white miso paste
- 16 ml (1 tablespoon) shio koji
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 8 ml (1/2 tablespoon) vegetable oil
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
-
Clean the mackerels. To do this, make sure the scales are removed. Place the mackerels on a plate or cutting board with the tail end facing up. Put your fingers over the tail end and use the back of a butter knife to scrap away the scales towards the head. Rinse the mackerels with cold water.
-
Next, prepare the marinade. In a small bowl or cup, combine 45 ml (3 tablespoons) white miso paste, 16 ml (1 tablespoon) shio koji, and black pepper, to taste. Set aside.
-
Rub the marinade all over the mackerels. Make sure to get the marinade in between the body and skin of the fish, as well as the belly.
-
Grease a baking dish with 8 ml (1/2 tablespoon) of vegetable oil and place the mackerels in it. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.
