SMOKED MACKEREL NOODLES WITH CUCUMBER AND HERBS
I adore smoked mackerel. It's a great source of omega oils. Any thin, Asian-style noodle will work nicely in this recipe, which can be served warm or cold. I often use Vietnamese rice noodles, about the thickness of linguine.

Tips:
- Choose the right type of smoked fish. For this recipe, a firm-fleshed fish like salmon, trout, or mackerel works best. Avoid fish that is too oily or flaky, as it will not hold up well in the salad.
- Use fresh, crisp cucumber noodles. You can make your own cucumber noodles using a spiralizer or a julienne peeler. If you are using store-bought cucumber noodles, be sure to rinse them well and drain them before using.
- Don't overdress the salad. A light vinaigrette dressing is all you need to enhance the flavors of the smoked fish and cucumber noodles. If you add too much dressing, the salad will become soggy.
- Serve the salad immediately. This salad is best enjoyed fresh. If you need to make it ahead of time, store the dressing and the salad separately and combine them just before serving.
Conclusion:
Smoked fish with cucumber noodles is a light, refreshing, and flavorful salad that is perfect for a summer meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious and healthy smoked fish salad that will impress your friends and family.
