Hi all,
I picked this up in the store today, and I’m wondering how I should cook with it?
I’m thinking about making a stew w potatoes (open to other suggestions!) – should I discard the liquid?
I also see online some recipes call for removing bones, is that necessary for this brand?
Thanks!

This is my favorite addition for kimchi jjigae.
Bones are softened and unnoticeable, edible.
Second favorite use is braising it with Korean radish. This [recipe](https://kimchimari.com/kkongchi-jorim-ssambap/) uses canned instead of fresh. I usually use canned since I consider it a kitchen staple and always have it handy. If I don’t have the radish, I use potatoes.
Eta: I drain and quickly rinse them once in the can with cold water before adding it to the kimchi jjigae

It will make your house stink but it is so damn good. My recipe is actually more simple than Maangchis. I just do stir fry garlic and sour kimchi. And pour in the can of mackerel. Braise for a few minutes and it’s good to eat with a bowl of hot rice. 🤤🤤🤤
Also you don’t need to remove the bones. It’s really soft
Chop up some jalapeños and green onion, put at the bottom of a small pot and throw the whole can in (with the liquid) sprinkle some gochugaru on top and simmer for a bit… so good with rice.
These recipes sound delicious – I have kimchi
