About Korean fish cake

Korean Fish Cake, or "Eomuk," is a popular ingredient in Korean cuisine, often enjoyed in soups, stir-fries, or as skewered street food. Made by blending ground white fish, starch, flour, sugar, and various seasonings into a paste before shaping and cooking, it offers a savory and slightly sweet flavor. Rich in protein from its fish base, it can be a satisfying addition to meals. However, its nutritional profile varies depending on its preparation and ingredients—some versions may be high in sodium, sugar, or additives. When opting for Korean Fish Cake, homemade or minimally processed varieties are generally healthier choices. As a versatile and convenient food, it can be a flavorful protein source in moderation while balancing it with fresh vegetables and other nutrient-rich ingredients in your dish.
