lautnusantara.com_ Fish is a source of animal protein that is rich in nutrients, such as omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals. However, the nutritional value of fish can be affected by the cooking method used. Some cooking methods can maintain fish nutrients, while other methods can cause loss of nutrients.

 

Cooking Methods that Maintain Fish Nutrients

1 Steaming:

- Steaming is the gentlest and most effective cooking method in maintaining the nutritional quality of fish.

- This method maintains almost all omega-3, vitamin, and mineral content, with minimal damage to the texture and taste of the fish.

 

2 Boiling:

- Boiling fish can reduce vitamin and mineral levels, but this technique tends to maintain omega-3 content better than frying.

 

3 Grilling:

- Grilling fish at low temperatures and for a short time can maintain fish nutrients.

- However, grilling at high temperatures and for a long time can cause loss of nutrients and the formation of harmful compounds.

 

Cooking Methods That Cause Loss of Fish Nutrients

1 Frying:

- Frying fish can cause loss of nutrients, especially omega-3 fatty acids.

- In addition, frying can increase the saturated fat and calorie content of fish.

- Dry frying will eliminate nutrients in fish. In addition, frying with oil at high temperatures will change PUFA fat (which is also contained in fish) into SAFA fat (saturated fat) which is harmful to the body and a source of various diseases.

 

2 Grilling:

- Grilling/baking it over charcoal reduces the nutritional value of fish, or even eliminates it.

 

Tips for Cooking Healthy Fish

- Choose a gentle cooking method, such as steaming, boiling, or grilling at low temperatures.

- Avoid frying fish for too long or at too high a temperature.

- Use a little oil when cooking fish.

- Consume fish immediately after cooking to get optimal nutritional benefits.
