About Pickerel
Pickerel, often referred to as walleye, is a freshwater fish popular in North American cuisine. Known for its mild, slightly sweet flavor and tender, flaky texture, it's a versatile choice for grilling, baking, or frying. Pickerel is a rich source of lean protein, essential for muscle maintenance and repair. It also provides omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart health and brain function. Additionally, pickerel is a good source of vitamins like B12 and minerals such as selenium and phosphorus. Low in saturated fat, it's considered a heart-friendly option. However, preparation methods can influence its nutritional profile—fried pickerel and heavy sauces may increase calorie and fat content. Originating from freshwater lakes and rivers, pickerel is often associated with Canadian and Midwestern cuisines, where it is treasured for its accessibility and role in regional dishes. Whether enjoyed simply or in more elaborate recipes, pickerel is a nutritious choice for seafood lovers.
