The taste of Autumn: Mackerels 秋季的味道:秋刀魚

Finally Fall is here as the weather gets cooler and cooler. Eating mackerels is a Japanese customs or habit to welcome the new season. This also marks the end of our simmering hot days!
秋季終於來了!
吃秋刀魚是日本人歡迎新季節的習慣,也代表炎熱夏天的結束!

Japanese calls mackerels "sanma" and they can be found everywhere during this season,  even being featured in sushi places.
日本人稱秋刀魚為"sanma",到處都可以找到。就連壽司店也推出了特別秋刀魚季節的菜單。

Not sure if it is due to the fish's season, raw mackerel tastes really great at this time. It is usually topped with a bit of minced ginger and spring onion.
不知道是不是因為正是秋刀魚的季節,我覺得生肉特別美味。
秋刀魚壽司上面都會附上生薑和春天蔥。

Sanma also tastes great when fried. Over here, I matched it with broccoli sprouts, yummy!
PS: I didn't fry the sanma, it's from the supermarket.
炸過的秋刀魚也格外美味,配上生苗就是“健康”的一餐了!
(照片中的秋刀魚不是我炸的,是從超市買的,呵呵~)
