About Smelt fish
Smelt fish are small, silvery fish found in freshwater and saltwater environments, common in North American and European cuisines. They are often enjoyed fried, grilled, or smoked, and their delicate flavor makes them a popular ingredient in appetizers and seafood dishes. Smelt are rich in protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential vitamins and minerals like vitamin D, calcium, and phosphorus, which contribute to bone health, heart health, and brain function. Their small size typically means they are eaten whole, providing additional nutrients from the bones. However, smelt fish are sometimes served breaded and fried, which may add extra calories and fat depending on preparation methods. A versatile and nutritious seafood choice, smelt fish can be a heart-healthy addition to a balanced diet when prepared with minimal added fats.
