Cakalang, also known as skipjack tuna, is a versatile fish commonly used in Indonesian cuisine, particularly in dishes from North Sulawesi like the flavorful Cakalang Fufu. This lean fish is rich in protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential vitamins such as B12 and D. Omega-3s contribute to heart health, brain function, and reducing inflammation. Cakalang is relatively low in calories and fat, making it an excellent choice for maintaining a balanced diet. However, as a species of tuna, it may contain moderate levels of mercury, so portion control and moderation are recommended, particularly for children and pregnant women. Often smoked or cooked with tropical spices, its bold flavor complements a variety of nutritious recipes. Whether grilled, stir-fried, or canned, Cakalang is a healthy addition to meals, celebrating the rich culinary heritage of the region while providing valuable nutrients for your diet.
