About Pomfret fish

Pomfret fish, a prized seafood staple in Asian, Indian, and Caribbean cuisines, is known for its delicate texture and buttery flavor. Rich in protein and omega-3 fatty acids, pomfret supports heart health, brain function, and overall wellness. It's also a good source of essential vitamins like B12 and minerals such as selenium and iodine, which aid metabolism and thyroid function. As a lean fish with minimal fat, it fits well into a healthy diet, especially when steamed, grilled, or baked. However, preparation matters—deep-frying pomfret may add unhealthy fats and calories. Pomfret's mild flavor absorbs spices beautifully, making it a versatile choice in flavorful curries, stir-fries, and soups. Low in mercury, it is considered safe for most age groups. Its health benefits, paired with a rich culinary legacy, make pomfret fish a nutritious and delicious addition to meals worldwide.
