Cutting Preference
Small-to-medium freshwater fish, traditionally popular in Bengali cuisine. It has delicate, mildly sweet flesh and fine bones, making it particularly suitable for light curries and jhol-style preparations.
Fresh fish should have clear/bright eyes, shiny skin, firm flesh, naturally fresh smell, and intact gills. The flesh should spring back when gently pressed.
A good source of high-quality protein, with useful amounts of omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin B12, selenium, phosphorus and other minerals. It is generally a relatively lean fish, depending on preparation.
