About Poached fish

Poached fish is a culinary preparation where fish is gently cooked in liquid, such as water, broth, wine, or milk, at a low temperature. This technique preserves the delicate texture and flavor of the fish while avoiding added fats from frying or roasting. Popular in cuisines worldwide, poached fish frequently appears in recipes from French, Mediterranean, and Asian traditions. Low in calories and rich in high-quality protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential vitamins like B12 and D, poached fish supports heart and brain health. Unlike fried or heavily seasoned dishes, this preparation method minimizes added sodium and unhealthy fats, making it suitable for various dietary needs. Pairing it with vegetables or whole grains enhances its nutrition profile. However, some poaching liquids may contain additional fats or sugars, so it's important to choose lighter options for maximum health benefits.
