this broth is delicious with any combination of fish and/or vegetables… i did salmon and daikon with it, and also a vegetarian version using sweet potato and carrot instead of mackerel! :-)
thanks for the recipe!

Hi Maangchi! I really really want to try making this for my parents, it looks so good! But my dad won’t eat anything with fish bones still inside :( If I take the fish off the bones before braising, or buy just the frozen fillets where it’s already off the bone, will the recipe still be as yummy?

I made this with two beautiful frozen mackerel. It’s winter in California now, and the radishes in the asian grocery stores are very very good. I’ve never gutted and trimmed a mackerel before, thank you for the great instructions and visuals. Delicious dish for oily fish lovers, like me. Thank you for the great recipe, it was DELICIOUS.

hmm, frozen mackerel should work well. Add more ginger if it is too fishy. Yes, you can use canned mackerel. During my Gapshida trip, Susanne from Roterdam the Netherlands made her braised mackerel with canned mackerel. It was very tasty.

I bought a frozen makerel and thawed it out, and found that it had very strong fishy smell. That’s not normal is it? I threw the fish out in the end. Fresh makerel is almost never available where I shop, so I was wondering…. Would canned makerel work too?

Piperjohn3,

Black cod is about $18/lb here so not too different from Manhattan prices. Had black cod (eundaegu jorim) prepared in a similar way (radish underneath fish, spicy and savory sauce) at Sorabol in Hawaii, and it was really delicious! Didn’t want to experiment without a recipe because it is such an expensive fish. Will make this recipe as is, and try Georgia’s recipe with the black cod.

Thanks for the 0.02
