Tips: Pat the mackerel skin completely dry so it sticks less to the pan and turns crispier.
Tips: Teriyaki sauce can burn quickly if boiled over high heat for too long, so reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer it down after the mackerel is cooked.
Tips: For a bento, let the mackerel and rice cool for about 5 minutes before closing the lid so the vegetables stay less soggy.
