About Hilsa fish
Hilsa fish, often called the "Queen of Fish," is a prized delicacy in South Asian cuisine, particularly in Bengali, Odia, and Assamese traditions. Native to the rivers of the Indian subcontinent, the Hilsa is famous for its rich, oily texture and distinct flavor. It is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which promote heart health and brain function, alongside high-quality protein, essential vitamins like B12, and minerals such as selenium and phosphorus. While its nutritional benefits are abundant, the fish is moderately high in cholesterol, making portion control essential for individuals monitoring cholesterol levels. Hilsa is typically enjoyed steamed, fried, or in light mustard-based curry, which enhances its natural flavors. Though revered for its taste and nutritional profile, its delicate bone structure can pose a minor challenge while eating. Overall, Hilsa fish is both a culinary treasure and a nutrient-rich food choice within a balanced diet.
