Pacific mackerel is among the most nutritionally dense and sustainably harvested fish available. Wild Planet sources from Pacific fisheries using methods that minimise bycatch. Like all Wild Planet products, the mackerel is cooked once, in the can — not pre-cooked, drained, and then reliquified with added water or broth.
