About Tambakol ulo

Tambakol Ulo, or tuna head, is a popular seafood delicacy in Filipino cuisine, often prepared in soups or grilled dishes. This ingredient is rich in protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential nutrients such as vitamin D and selenium, making it a heart-healthy choice that supports brain function and immune health. The tender flesh and gelatinous parts near the bones are prized for their unique texture and depth of flavor. However, moderation is advised due to its potential cholesterol content, depending on preparation methods. Traditional recipes typically pair Tambakol Ulo with vegetables, ginger, and tamarind, enhancing its nutritional profile while balancing its rich taste. Ideal for seafood enthusiasts, it offers a wholesome addition to balanced diets, especially when cooked with minimal oil and sodium.
