Gem perch, is the famous Australian gem perch, also known as jadeite spot in China, scientific name Scortum barcoo, English name Jade perch. Native to the freshwater waters of Australia, it is the only famous freshwater fish species found in Australia. It was first evolved from marine fish, so it not only maintains the tenderness of freshwater fish, but also has the unique deliciousness of marine fish. How high is the Omega-3 content of gem perch? There are 2483 mg in 100 grams of fish fillets. Also 100 grams of fillet, salmon has only 842 mg of Omega-3, which is only 1/3 of that of gem perch.
This is just muscle, if you count the internal organs, this fish is completely a live oil-producing machine, look at its internal organs:
In addition, the gem perch is one of the preferred species for aquaponics, which Australia describes as the perfect aquaponic fish.
However, the domestic market for gem perch has always been relatively niche, and no large-scale industry has been formed. This is closely related to the consumption habits of the people, because if the gem perch takes the fresh route, enters the vegetable market and the homes of ordinary people, its internal organs look disgusting on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is more troublesome for the family to deal with.
But gem perch is undoubtedly a high-end fish that can take the deep processing route, because of its high muscle Omega-3 content, whether it is steamed, braised, dry fried and other cooking routes or take the sashimi route, it is very marketable. Moreover, its processing by-products are also very good as raw materials for extracting Omega-3. ——The author has tasted the whole fish feast produced in container farming, including steaming, braised, dry frying, stewed soup, fish skin fried peppers, sashimi, pretzels, sauerkraut fish, etc., which are indeed superior and highly recommended.
