>> Mackerel cured in olive oil - sgombri sott'olio

8 mackerel fillets
juice of 2 lemons (1/2 cup)
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 to 2 cups extra-virgin olive oil

Lay the mackerel in a single layer in a 12 inch skillet,
preferably stainless steel. Pour 2 cups or more water and the
lemon juice to cover fillets. Sprinkle half the peppercorns and
1 teaspoon of the salt over them.

Set the pan over medium heat and bring to a slow rolling boil.
Turn down the heat and simmer gently for 15 minutes.

Prop up a large wooden cutting board at a moderate angle,
tipping towards sink. Drain the fillets and cool completely.

Arrange the fillets in a shallow dish, one layer or two. Sprinkle
each layer with the remaining peppercorns and salt. Cover
with olive oil.

Marinate 2 to 3 hours unrefrigerated for same day use, or cover
and store in the refrigerator for a month.

>> Marinated mackerel and red onion salad

2 tablespoons of the curing oil
1 medium bermuda onion, thinly sliced
