Lemon are the most nutritionally powerful fruits that contain a lot of antioxidants and flavonoids, including citric acid, vitamin C, hesperetin, naringin, naringenin, carotenes, and lutein.  Their intense citrus aroma and sour flavor compliment oily mackerel very well, creating a good balance of flavor.

Parseley not only enhances flavor and color, but also supplies a lot of phyto-antioxidants, such as myristicin, limonene, eugenol, apiin, and apigenin, that are good for our health.   Especially, eugenol has anti-microbial activity and can stabilize blood glucose level.
