La Belle-Iloise are an iconic French producer, renowned for their beautiful tins and delicious produce. Since 1932 they have been producing tins of sardines and mackerel from Quiberon, Brittany the home of French sardines. Now it is run by Caroline Hilliet, the granddaughter of founder, Georges Hilliet. We highly recommend a trip to one of their magnificent stores during any trip to France.
 
Fished in season, these mackerel fillets are freshly prepared, cooked in a court-bouillon and canned by hand in the strictest respect of traditions.
Subtly flavoured with pink berries, bergamot and a hint of dill, their tender, melt-in-the mouth texture reveals delicate floral and lemon notes.
Fat-free, oil-free, low-calorie and low-salt, this recipe is deliciously light so can be enjoyed in abundance! One of the omega-3 champions, 100g of mackerel covers 6 times the recommended intake of DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and 3 times that of EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), in addition to providing 3 times the requirements of vitamin B12 and 100% of vitamin D requirements. Also a source of iodine, phosphorus and selenium, mackerel offers optimum nutritional value.
To be enjoyed cold, as a starter or as a main course, our Tout Simplement Mackerel Fillets are simply delicious with potatoes, lentils, spinach or quinoa.
