Bonito a la Riojana

Soon the Bonito season, which usually begins in May and runs until October, although they are already beginning to be seen in some fishmongers. So today we leave you with this great recipe so that when you see it in your fishmonger, do not hesitate to buy it: nice to the Rioja.

It is super important that to achieve good results when preparing this recipe or any other with bonito and (generally with fish) it is cook it just and necessary. You will see that with only 2 minutes and the residual heat of the sauce the fish will be at its optimum point to be cooked but with all the juiciness and mellowness. If we overcook, the result will be a hard, dry and slightly mellow fish.

The pretty one is a blue Fish with excellent nutritional properties, among which folic acid, phosphorus, iodine or vitamin A stand out. In addition, like good oily fish, it is one of the fish with the least amount of fat and very healthy for our body. And, of course, its texture and flavor make it a delicious option for our recipes.
