Fishballs are a popular culinary item originating from Asian cuisines, particularly Chinese, Thai, and Filipino traditions. Made from minced or finely ground fish—often white fish such as pollock or cod—they are blended with flour, starch, and seasonings to form smooth, elastic bites. Fishballs are typically shaped into spheres and can be fried, boiled, or steamed, depending on the dish. They are commonly served in soups, stir-fries, or as snacks with dipping sauces. Rich in protein and omega-3 fatty acids from the fish base, fishballs provide important nutrients for muscle growth and heart health. However, commercial fishballs may contain added sodium and preservatives, and deep-fried variants may be higher in unhealthy fats. Choosing steamed or boiled options made from fresh ingredients can enhance their nutritional benefits and minimize less healthy aspects. Fishballs are a flavorful and versatile addition to a balanced diet when consumed in moderation.
