Dried fish is a popular food preservation method used across various cuisines, particularly in Asian, African, and Nordic cultures. This process involves dehydrating fish to extend shelf life while intensifying its flavor. Rich in protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential micronutrients such as calcium, iron, and B vitamins, dried fish offers a nutritious boost to meals. It is low in carbohydrates and can be a lean choice when consumed in moderation. However, some varieties may contain high amounts of sodium due to the salting process, which can be detrimental for individuals managing high blood pressure or kidney conditions. Its bold flavor and chewy texture make it a versatile ingredient in soups, stews, or as a snack. When choosing dried fish, look for options without added preservatives or excessive salt to maximize its health benefits.
