Saury, similar to mackerel and sardines, is a typical "green fish". They are usually rich in fat, have high biological enzyme activity and are easy to deteriorate. To judge whether saury is fresh or not, we should first look at its eyes and gills. Fish eyes are clear and transparent, gills are ruddy and gorgeous, which is delicious.

Followed by the fish body, the fish skin is compact and complete, fresh and tender with metallic luster. In addition, fresh saury also has a typical feature, that is, if the "mouth corner" presents a bright sallow color, it is also a fresh Peugeot.

Distribution of saury:

Distributed in the North Pacific Ocean, including the Sea of Japan, Alaska, Bering Sea, California, Mexico and other sea areas. North latitude 67-18 degrees, east longitude 137 degrees-west longitude 108 degrees. I live in shallow water (0-230m), and my favorite water temperature is 15 to18℃ (59-64 F).

On the Pacific side of Japan, it will migrate southward from late August to winter, while on the Sea of Japan, its southward migration group is not obvious, but it is obvious in the north around June, which can be captured by rod net and gill net.

When the body length exceeds 25 cm, it is mature. In the southern waters of Japan in autumn and winter, and in the northern waters of Japan in early summer, they will gather in the current algae and tidal environment to lay eggs. When laying eggs, it will also enter the inner bay, and its eggs will be entangled in silk to avoid sinking into the sea with the current.
