Haven't tried Kisaku's version, but I love the mackeral sushi at Shun and IIRC, Toyoda does a serviceable version of shioyaki. Oddly, I've never cooked it at home, but your recipe sounds like a good place to start. I've eyed those frozen filets at Uwajimaya, wondering how they'd be...now I'm going to go get some!</p> I miss Takohachi’s mackeral too!

Nice and oily, and really great smoked - as we all know! Back in Blightly you could find it everywhere. I remember days when I was a lad, going down to the local seeside town, and fishing for mackerel. If you were lucky, you could get 3 or 4 on the line at once, if a decent school was coming in (you would fish with multiple hooks on the line..) I haven't cooked it over here though.</p> Mackerel is amazing. Nice and oily, and really great smoked - as we all know! Back in Blightly you could find it everywhere.
