Cut off the head and cut the mackerel into thin slices.
We clean the onion and cut it into thin half rings. I advise you not to regret Luka - marinated, it also turns out to be very tasty.
We spread the pieces of mackerel in a deep container to make it easier to mix everything.
Add chopped onion to the fish.
And then the rest of the ingredients listed in the recipe. I make mustard on my own, so I add only a spoonful of it, if you overdo it, the fish will turn out to be very spicy - I personally don’t like this option.
We mix everything well, in the process juice is formed.
It remains to shift the mackerel into a plastic container and send it to the refrigerator for at least a day, or even two. I advise you to periodically shake the container with the fish so that it marinates better.
That's all - mackerel marinated in mustard sauce is completely ready for use.
I usually serve it with boiled potatoes - a classic option. The fish according to this recipe is very tasty, juicy and appetizing.
I advise you to try!
Bon Appetit everyone!

One more recipe dry salted mackerel.
We take the following: dried coriander half a teaspoon, grainy mustard half a teaspoon, salt two and a half tablespoons, sugar one tablespoon, bay leaf one piece, ground bell pepper half a teaspoon, mackerel a couple of pieces.
Further, as with the previous recipe, only without water: we rub the fish with a mixture of salt and spices, and the coriander and dry mustard should be ground in a mortar before cooking, and the bay leaf should be crushed.
Keep the mackerel in salt for a couple of days, wrapping tightly and tightly without air in a plastic bag for a couple of days in the refrigerator.
Contrary to what was said here by the author serenya71, fish (in any case, such as mackerel or herring, I can’t say for salmon, it seems that they really won’t be combined) is still combined with such a wonderful universal seasoning as Russian mustard.
Everyone does it in their own way, but personally I always add mustard (ready, diluting it in half a glass of cold boiled water) to fish that is already ready to eat, salted.
And usually, without any tricks, I clean the salt, defrost it, cut it into portioned pieces, rub each on all sides with coarse salt, trying not to oversalt (about the fact that fish don’t take too much salt, let them tell tales to those who have never eaten terribly salted fish), I put it in layers in an enameled saucepan, sprinkling the layers with black ground pepper and adding a few broken leaves of lavrushka. Cover with a lid and refrigerate for two days. Mustard filling after watering, as I said above. By the way, such a filling saves salted fish well, only more is needed - it’s great to take salt on itself.
Enjoy your meal!

Be sure to pay attention to the quality of the fish. Use fresh, not frozen. Her skin should be light gray, without yellow spots. The eyes should be bright, not cloudy. Fresh mackerel is elastic to the touch, with a characteristic fresh smell.
For salting, use glass, ceramic enameled or plastic dishes, the main thing is that it does not oxidize. Many have adapted to salt fish in cut-off drinking water bottles. We will use glass jars.
Use regular, non-iodized salt, coarse grinding is better.
It is better not to store the finished snack in the freezer, because after thawing, its taste and quality will deteriorate.
