干し 塩さば 冷凍

Shio Saba also known as Salt Marinated Saba fillet is an extremely common and popular dish eaten throughout Japan. Saba is mostly caught of the southern coasts of Japan. In the past when cold chain and refrigeration was not commonplace, fishermen and chefs used to salt and age fishes such as saba so that they could be kept longer. Little did they know, adding salt to a fatty fish like Saba would further elevate its flavor to the next level. 

Shio Saba is fatty and extremely delicious, it is a very oily fish so it cooks extremely well on a pan or over a fire.
