Patagonia Provisions Smoked Mackerel in Olive Oil

Nothing highlights the delicate flavor of wild Atlantic Mackerel like our simple, savory blend of extra-virgin olive oil, salt and bay wood smoke. Add to pasta and salads, or eat straight from the can with crusty sourdough, using the silky-smooth olive oil as a dipping sauce.

Atlantic mackerel is the small fish with the mild flavor and big, meaty texture of a large fish. But there are many other reasons to give it a try. Unlike large apex predators like tuna and swordfish, these mackerel are small, schooling fish that occur in great abundance, providing a truly sustainable harvest. They’re caught by hook and line, with little to no bycatch, by traditional fishing families in northern Spain. Since Atlantic mackerel are low on the ocean food chain, they don’t have the high levels of mercury and other toxins that can concentrate in larger fish. And they are an excellent source of protein, vitamin B-12, and other essential nutrients, with 500 mg of Omega 3 fatty acids per serving.

Each can contains 4.2 oz; fully cooked.
