Forthe Mackerel:

  • We cut the head, open the fish from the belly, washit well, open it like a butterfly without taking out the bone and we wipe it todry.
  • Sprinkle with salt and hang it with a peg in a sunnyplace, but also air for an hour.
  • Then put it in a shady place where the airpenetrates it again and we leave it for about 10 hours, unless we do not wantit to dry much, so we take it out earlier.
  • Bake on the grill, add chopped lemon oil andparsley and accompany it with the oatmeal salad.
