Quiz: Tuna in for these Saltwater flavours!

Seafood has been an essential part of cuisines all over the world for a long time. Fishes are found under two categories: freshwater and saltwater. It is very important to know the origins of the fish before consuming it.

The global saltwater fish demand is extremely high, and the reason for this is due to its rich protein contents. Fishes are rich in omega-3 fatty acids and minerals, which help prevent heart diseases, strokes, eczema, lupus and other deadly illnesses. Seawater fishes in India are widely in demand for their nutrition and splendid taste. Among these are Rawas (Indian Salmon), Katla (Indian Carp), Rohu, Bangda (Indian Mackerel), Rani, Surmai (Seer Fish), Pomfret and Hilsa.  

Dishes that are well-known for using saltwater fish include certain types of sushis from Japan, fish and chips from England, cod-based dishes in Portugal, whitebait fritters from New Zealand and many more. Fried white fish filet, along with sliced potatoes, is a common comfort food in Britain. Dried fish products prepared from small fish are a preservative method that is now well-accepted. 

If you’re a fan of these saltwater delights, then this quiz is for you.
