について Saba Misoni Teishoku
Miso-simmered mackerel set meal — sweet and savoury
How to Make Saba Misoni Teishoku (Traditional & Healthy Version)
Saba Misoni Teishoku is a beloved set meal in Japanese cuisine, featuring mackerel simmered in a savory miso sauce. Originating from home kitchens and popular izakaya across Japan, this dish elegantly balances the rich umami of miso with the natural oils of saba (mackerel), creating a harmonious flavor profile that embodies the essence of washoku (Japanese food culture). The teishoku, or set meal, typically includes rice (gohan), miso soup, and pickled vegetables (tsukemono), making it a complete and nourishing lunch option. The appeal of Saba Misoni lies in its comforting, homey taste and its use of seasonal ingredients. The fatty mackerel, especially in autumn and winter, absorbs the deep, slightly sweet miso sauce, delivering a warming and satisfying meal. Visually, the glossy sauce atop the fish, garnished with negi (green onion) and shoga (ginger), exemplifies the importance of presentation in Japanese cuisine. Saba Misoni Teishoku is a great choice for those seeking authentic flavors, balanced nutrition, and a taste of Japanese culinary tradition.

作り方
- 1
Score the skin of the saba fillets with shallow diagonal cuts. Sprinkle a pinch of salt, let sit for 5 minutes, then rinse and pat dry.

Scoring prevents the fish from curling during cooking and helps flavor penetration.

In a saucepan, combine water, sake, mirin, sugar, and half of the ginger slices. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
3 minutes
Do not boil vigorously to preserve the delicate flavor of the fish.

Add the saba fillets, skin side up, to the saucepan. Cover with an otoshibuta (drop lid) or parchment paper. Simmer gently for 8 minutes.
8 minutes
Using an otoshibuta ensures even cooking and keeps the fish moist.

In a small bowl, mix miso with a few spoonfuls of the simmering liquid until smooth. Add this miso mixture and soy sauce to the pan.
