About Galunggong fish

Galunggong, also known as round scad, is a popular fish in Filipino cuisine, widely enjoyed for its affordability and versatility. Rich in protein, Galunggong provides essential amino acids that support muscle growth and repair. It is also a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, which promote heart health and brain function. Additionally, this fish contains essential vitamins and minerals like vitamin B12, selenium, and phosphorus, contributing to overall well-being. Commonly served grilled, fried, or simmered in soup, it is a staple in many Filipino households. While Galunggong is nutritious, its health benefits depend on the preparation; frying may add unnecessary calories and unhealthy fats. Opting for steamed or grilled methods can help maintain its nutritional value. Sustainable fishing practices are encouraged to protect this abundant yet overexploited resource. Galunggong is a delicious and nutritious choice that reflects the culinary heritage of the Philippines.
