About Bandeng

Bandeng, also known as milkfish, is a popular staple in Southeast Asian cuisine, particularly in Indonesia and the Philippines. This silver-scaled fish is a rich source of high-quality protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential vitamins such as B12 and D. Its tender, mild-tasting flesh makes it versatile for grilling, frying, or steaming. Bandeng is appreciated for promoting heart and brain health due to its healthy fat content, but its small, numerous bones may require careful preparation or consumption. Commonly enjoyed as part of various traditional dishes, such as "Bandeng Presto" in Indonesia, it offers a nutrient-dense option for meals. However, preparation methods like frying can increase calorie and fat content, so steaming or baking may be better suited for those watching their cholesterol or calorie intake. Whether enjoyed whole or in fillet form, Bandeng is a flavorful and nutritious seafood choice.
