About Gulas

Gulas, often referred to as "surimi eels," are a seafood product made from finely minced white fish, typically Alaskan pollock or similar species, which is seasoned, shaped, and dyed to resemble baby eels. Originating from Spain, gulas are a modern alternative to traditional "angulas," or real baby eels, which are considered a delicacy but can be prohibitively expensive. Rich in lean protein, gulas are a relatively low-calorie option, making them a satisfactory ingredient for those seeking nutritious seafood. They are often sautéed with garlic and olive oil, served as tapas, or incorporated into various Mediterranean dishes. While a healthy choice overall, gulas can contain additives or excessive sodium, depending on preparation and packaging, so moderation and brand selection are key. Their convenience, affordability, and similarity to traditional cuisine have made gulas a popular staple in many Spanish households.
