About Dilis

Dilis, also known as anchovies, are small, flavorful fish commonly found in Filipino and other Southeast Asian cuisines. Often dried, fried, or marinated, they are a versatile ingredient used in dishes like rice toppings or as a savory snack. Packed with protein, calcium, and omega-3 fatty acids, dilis promotes heart and bone health, while also supporting cognitive function. It is an excellent source of essential nutrients such as iron and selenium, though its sodium content can be high due to preservation methods like salting or drying. This makes it wise to consume dilis in moderation, especially for individuals watching their sodium intake. Rich in umami flavor, these tiny fish not only enhance meals but also offer numerous health benefits when balanced within a nutritious diet.
