If there’s ever been a fish that’s purely made for a barbecue, it’s sardines. It is a highly versatile fish! Cold drink under the sun. It doesn’t get any better! Nutritious, inexpensive, safe, and sustainable are these tasty tiny morsels. The high oil concentration and robust taste of Frozen Sardines are perfect for marinated/raw procedures, alongside pan-frying and barbeque.
Particularly popular with pasta, pizzas, and salads too. To keep the natural juices and flavour, our frozen sardines are caught fresh and frozen at sea.
The sardines reach the processing facility on ice, in a refrigerator or pre-frozen at sea. While they’re unloaded, personnel examine and assess the fish. Our personnel monitor the state of each sardine, regulate the temperature and collect chemical analysis samples. The prepared sardines are headed for the conveyor belt and washed thoroughly.
Frozen sardines are packed airtight and can be kept at -26 degrees C for 6 months.
Fresh frozen sardines are available as a whole, round fish, fillets with skin and bones, as well as boneless fillets. They’re meant to be rock-hard, with no signs of past defrosting. It should look quite shiny, without any freezer-burn marks. High-quality sardines with a fine bone structure make them very vulnerable and are treated with extreme caution.
As the bones of frozen sardines are a good calcium source and the skin is a great source of omega-3 fatty acids, sardines are most healthy in their consumption. The Omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA are present in sardines as one of the most abundant sources.
By modifying metabolic functions, omega-3 fatty acids can facilitate weight loss. Appetite control, inflammation, and gene expression are some of these mechanisms.
Sardines are a good protein source – 36.7g of protein are is present in this fish. Sardines are also a decent vitamin B12 source. They are also an important source of choline, copper, niacin, phosphorus and vitamin D, and selenium. Selenium is an essential antioxidant that influences the development of fertility, thyroid function, and DNA. It helps to preserve the health of the blood and nervous system.
