Mackerel tartare with a salad of tomato, tomato jelly and fennel salad

Mackerel tartare with a salad of tomato, tomato jelly, and fennel salad. Recipe by FoodXperience chef Rolf Hoekstra from HANOS Heerenveen.

Rolf: “When the waters off our coast warm up, the mackerel comes this way. This affordable and very tasty fish is, in my opinion, perfect for a summer dish. I make a tartare from the mackerel with, among other things, a shallot, bergamot, chives, tarragon, and white balsamic vinegar.”
