Steps:

• Rinse fillets, and pat dry with paper towels. In a medium bowl, mix together the soy sauce, mirin, sugar and fresh ginger. Place fillets into the marinade, and let stand for at least 20 minutes.

SALT-BROILED MACKEREL

Steps:

• Slash the skin side of the fish about 1/4-inch deep, at 1-inch intervals. Put it on a rack set over a sink or bowl and sprinkle liberally with salt on both sides (you should use at least 1 teaspoon per side for each fillet). Let rest for 30 minutes.
• Heat the broiler, with the heat source within 4 inches of the broiling rack. Put a grate or rack on a sturdy pan (lined with aluminum foil, if you like, to ease cleanup) and heat it for about 5 minutes. Rinse the fillets and pat them dry.
• When the pan is hot, put the fillets on the rack, skin side up. Broil, carefully turning once about 3/4 of the way through cooking, until the fish is opaque and the tip of a knife flakes the thickest part easily, no more than 10 minutes. Carefully remove the fillets with a spatula and serve, skin side up, with lemon wedges and soy sauce.
