2. Thank you for the recipe! This looks like a prefect recipe for me.

3. The mackerels have just started turning up here on the coast so this was just the inspiration I needed! Is it possible to use something like white wine instead of sake?

4. I wish I could find mackerel where I live. I had some in Nikko and it was so good.
