About Steamed fish

Steamed fish is a simple, flavorful dish often associated with East Asian cuisine, though variations exist globally. Prepared by steaming fresh fish like tilapia, cod, or sea bass, it's typically garnished with a blend of soy sauce, ginger, garlic, scallions, and sesame oil. This cooking method preserves the fish's natural moisture while minimizing the use of added fat, making it a heart-healthy choice rich in lean protein and omega-3 fatty acids, which support brain and heart health. Steaming also retains essential nutrients like vitamin D, B12, and selenium, while avoiding the calorie-dense effects of frying or heavy sauces. However, sodium levels may rise depending on the amount of soy sauce used, so moderation is key. Delicious and light, steamed fish is a nutritious option perfect for those aiming for a balanced diet.
