One Sunny Mackerel – Vung Tau | Famous specialty of Ba Ria Vung Tau Province

One-sun mackerel is  not only a  specialty  but also a meaningful gift for relatives and friends. With this dish, each establishment will have its own way of processing but the most common recipe. After soaking, take it out to drain and dry on the upper or mesh griddle, and bring it to dry in the sun. What makes the brand name of this dish is not only fresh fish but also “a sunny spot”. Fish trays are dried in the bright sunlight at the coast to help fish keep the full sweetness of the fish.

 This Vung Tau sun mackerel  does not have the fishy smell of fresh fish, not as hard as dried fish. After drying, the fish is stored in a vacuum bag, which helps the fish keep its color, smell and preserve it longer. All create the attractiveness and rich flavor of this sunny mackerel dish.
