About Shimaaji

Shimaaji, commonly known as striped jack or white trevally, is a prized fish in Japanese cuisine, often enjoyed in sushi and sashimi preparations. Native to the Pacific Ocean, it has a firm yet tender texture and a slightly rich, umami-packed flavor that appeals to seafood enthusiasts. Nutritionally, Shimaaji is an excellent source of high-quality protein, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin B12, and selenium, which contribute to heart health, brain function, and immune support. It’s relatively low in calories and beneficial for those seeking a nutrient-dense option. However, like many fish, its mercury content should be considered in moderation, particularly for pregnant individuals. Shimaaji's versatility makes it a popular choice for healthy meals, whether raw or lightly cooked.
