Skumbria, commonly known as mackerel, is a nutrient-dense oily fish prized for its rich flavor and health benefits. Found in many global cuisines, it is particularly popular in Mediterranean, Asian, and Eastern European dishes. Packed with high-quality protein, vitamins B12 and D, and essential minerals like selenium, mackerel is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart, brain, and joint health. Its oily texture makes it versatile for grilling, smoking, or curing, offering a distinctive taste that pairs well with fresh herbs and citrus. While its high fat content contributes to its health benefits, it may also be calorically dense, so moderation is advised for those monitoring daily caloric intake. Skumbria is also low in mercury compared to larger fish, making it a safer seafood option for regular consumption.
