Sardinhas, or sardines, are small, oily fish commonly found in Mediterranean and Portuguese cuisine. Rich in protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential vitamins like B12 and D, sardines are a nutritional powerhouse known for supporting heart health, brain function, and reducing inflammation. They are also a great source of calcium and phosphorus, particularly when consumed with their edible bones. Sardines are often enjoyed grilled, canned, or preserved in olive oil, offering versatile preparation options. While they are low in mercury compared to larger fish, their sodium content in canned varieties can be high, so moderation is key. Their sustainable fishing practices make them an eco-friendly choice for seafood lovers. Sardinhas are not only flavorsome but also a health-conscious addition to a balanced diet.
