We use a small amount of sugar in the curing process to balance the salt and improve the texture of the fish. Most of the sugar stays in the brine and is rinsed off before smoking. What's left is minimal - typically under 1g per 100g of finished product - and doesn't affect the macronutrient profile in a way that concerns most keto eaters or diabetics. It's used to cure not to sweeten.
Keep refridgerated. Loosely packed mackerels will be good for 7 days but we recommend eating within 2 or 3 days. All products are freezable upon day of purchase - store for up to 3 months.
