About Pangasus fish

Pangasius fish, commonly referred to as "swai" or "basa," originates from Southeast Asia, particularly Vietnam, where it is farmed in freshwater rivers and ponds. This mild-flavored white fish has a delicate texture and is widely used in global cuisines, including curries, stir-fries, and grilled dishes. Nutritionally, Pangasius is an excellent source of lean protein, containing essential amino acids while being low in calories and fat. It also provides modest amounts of vitamin B12 and selenium, which support energy metabolism and immune function. However, its omega-3 fatty acid content is lower compared to fatty fish like salmon or mackerel. Health-conscious buyers should note that farming practices and quality can vary; opting for reputable brands ensures safer consumption. Versatile and affordable, Pangasius remains a popular choice for those seeking a light and budget-friendly protein option in their meals.
