About Bangus head

Bangus head, derived from the milkfish (Chanos chanos), holds a distinctive place in Filipino cuisine. Known for its rich flavor and tender meat, it is often used in soups, broths, or grilled dishes. Packed with proteins, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential vitamins like B12, it contributes to heart and brain health. The gelatinous texture from its cartilage provides collagen, which can promote skin and joint health. However, Bangus head is also known for its moderate fat content and should be consumed in balance, especially when cooked with heavy seasonings or fried. A staple in traditional Filipino recipes, Bangus head is celebrated for its nutritional value and deep, savory taste.
