About Iwashi

Iwashi, known as Japanese sardines, are small, oily fish celebrated for their rich flavor and high nutritional value. Originating from Japanese cuisine, they are often grilled, simmered, or served fresh as sashimi, showcasing their versatility in traditional dishes. Packed with omega-3 fatty acids, Iwashi supports heart health, brain function, and reduces inflammation. They are also an excellent source of protein, vitamins B12 and D, and essential minerals like calcium and selenium, aiding in bone health and energy metabolism. Low in mercury, Iwashi offers a safer seafood option compared to larger fish. However, due to their oiliness, they can have higher calorie content, making portion control important for those monitoring caloric intake. Their sustainable fishing methods also appeal to environmentally-conscious consumers. Nutritious, delicious, and eco-friendly, Iwashi is a smart addition to a balanced diet.
