Sardines, Raw

EverydayRaw

Sardines are small, oily fish belonging to the herring family, typically harvested from temperate oceans worldwide. These nutrient-dense fish are consumed whole in their raw state, providing high levels of omega-3 fatty acids, calcium from edible bones, and complete protein. Their delicate flesh and rapid perishability make them particularly suited for fresh preparations like sashimi or lightly cured dishes, while their low mercury content and sustainable fishing practices enhance their nutritional appeal.
