Ina Garten's Roasted Asparagus

•  A bundle of fresh asparagus
• Good olive oil
• Kosher salt, plus extra for sprinkling
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 
  

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Break off the tough ends of the asparagus and, if they're thick, peel them. Place the asparagus on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, then toss to coat the asparagus completely. Spread the asparagus in a single layer and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Roast the asparagus for 25 minutes, until tender but still crisp.

Saba Shioyaki / Grill Salted Mackerel

Super easy and fast.

1 Mackerel filet / store bought, already salted

Salt + Pepper

..Mackerel pat dry, cut in 3 pieces per filet.
..Optional: on baking sheet, drizzle a tiny bit of oil. Mackerel is an oily fish, this step just prevents the fish from sticking to the sheet.
..Place filet skin side up on aluminum foil. Season with pepper.
..Broil for about 8 minutes or until skin is lightly crisp and brown.
..Serve with lime or grated daikon {radish} with ponzu.

The best way is to eat with white rice. Yum! Just beware of fine bones in fish.
