There is an old saying that eating fish is good for the brain, why? Because there is a nutrient in fish that stands out, and that is known as "brain gold" DHA. DHA is beneficial to the healthy development of children's brains and eyesight, so eat more fish at the right time, you will become smarter. In addition, fish is also rich in high quality protein, calcium, phosphorus and other mineral elements, vitamin D, vitamin B12 and so on. Therefore, many parents will match fish in their daily diet for their children.

But usually we can eat most of the freshwater fish, nutritional value is far less than the deep-sea fish, but the market sells deep-sea fish is not much, and deep-sea fish is generally fishy and heavy, directly eat it may be difficult for many people to accept, and more importantly, is that the fish is generally more spiny, the baby's age is still small, if not accidentally by the fish spikes stuck in the throat, that the consequences of the unsurprising. But with the development of science and technology, deep-sea fish can be processed into our public acceptance of food, not only to retain the nutritional value of deep-sea fish and can be eliminated from the worry of the fish stuck in the throat, such as fish sausage is one of the most popular by all the moms and dads welcome.

Speaking of fish sausage, most of the fish sausage on the market is deep-sea fish sausage, of which cod sausage is the most common, in addition to a small amount of tuna sausage and salmon sausage. If these deep-sea fish sausages are made of pure fish, it is certainly good. However, many deep-sea fish sausages are not made of pure fish, but are made of frozen minced fish or mixed minced fish, and some are even made of freshwater fish and chicken, which are far less nutritious than the pure deep-sea fish sausages made of pure cod meat and pure tuna.

Therefore, this time, I will list 12 common deep-sea fish sausage products in the market, and teach you how to recognize the real deep-sea fish sausage from the raw materials, so that you can choose the deep-sea fish sausage products that you are satisfied with.

Review 1: Ingredients

First of all, before we introduce the product, let us popularize the ingredients of fish sausage.

Pure fish, without additives, is made of fresh fish, to maximize the retention of the nutritional quality of fish, especially unstable trace elements and unsaturated fatty acids. Deep-sea fish raw materials to the frozen majority, the need for cold chain transportation and preservation, processing technology is relatively more complex, the processing equipment requirements are also high. Secondly, the product cost of pure fish meat will be greatly increased, the price will be relatively high.

Surimi, made from fish with various additives. Surimi can be made from a mixture of fish, which can ensure the nutritional quality of fish sausage products, maintain the flavor of the product, while greatly reducing the cost. Therefore, surimi is the most common raw material for fish sausage on the market.

Both surimi and pure fish products have their own advantages, so there are some products that combine the advantages of both, using surimi to add fish as an ingredient. In the food industry, especially in the children's snack industry, health, nutrition, and high quality are the key concerns of consumers today. As a food industry workers, I was not particularly optimistic about the processing of meat sausage snack products for children. Because the traditional meat sausage added a lot of starch, not very healthy and nutritious, and at the same time the taste of the original meat products have lost its freshness. In addition, meat sausage products are high in energy and have a lot of additives, which is not good for children's development and is not suitable for children to eat. However, the products in this review have really changed my mind about Deep Sea Fish Sausage. Among the 12 products in this review, there are 5 pure fish sausages and 7 minced fish sausages or minced fish and fish sausages. Among the products labeled with fish content, it can be seen that the cod fish content of Bululu Cod Sausage is the highest at 59.16%. The products of Liangpin Xiaoxian, Babycare and Zek were all above 50%. On the other hand, a product from Fisherman's Cute Home caught my attention, which is made from tuna meat caught in the deep sea of the South Pacific Ocean, with a starch content of less than 4%. Seeing the ingredient list, it makes me feel full of meat. The main fish sausage contains real tuna meat particles, visible to the naked eye. This fish sausage bite to eat, is real tuna meat ah.

Review Item 2: Fish Types

Secondly, there are so many types of deep-sea fish sausages available on the market, so what kind of fish are they made from? Looking at the 12 products in this review, it can be seen that the products are mostly cod sausages, with only Fishing Lovely and Iway using tuna as an ingredient.

Looking back at the history of the development of meat sausage products, initially pork, chicken, etc. as raw materials used to make sausage, after the fish is also used to make sausage, the development of today, the high nutritional value of the deep-sea fish has also been developed as a raw material made of deep-sea fish sausage. Cod sausage is one of the most popular types of sausage on the market in recent years. Cod as a kind of deep-sea fish, meat is delicious, nutritious, and high yield, high economic value. But the cod fish market, "mixed fish and dragons", around the cod fish have a lot of confusing questions, the market with "cod" fish have more than a dozen kinds of cod, cod, silver cod, black cod, etc., uneven prices are also puzzling people, the consumer's mind about the The consumer's mind about "they eat in the end is not really cod fish" confusion is no standard answer.

And tuna is the main source of high-quality protein, the price of raw materials as high as 92, its comprehensive nutritional indicators are much better than the general deep-sea fish, digestion and absorption after eating the conversion rate is very high. Tuna is a green non-polluting health food, is the Japanese national and elite class are very much in pursuit of high-end deep-sea fish food, but also rare deep-sea fishery resources, international ocean fishing and tuna exports and circulation of the use of national quota system. The DHA content per 100g of tuna meat is as high as 2,877mg, which is 3-5 times more than the DHA content of general deep-sea fish. As an unsaturated fatty acid, DHA is easy to be oxidized during processing, which requires extremely high processing technology. And because of its high price, few products on the market use real deep-sea tuna as an ingredient. Of the only two tuna-based fish sausages in this review, I would recommend Fish Cute's Tuna Meat Sausage. Because its tuna meat sausage is recommended by the China Pelagic Association, there is a "China Pelagic Fishing Products" certification mark on the product packaging, and the source of its tuna raw materials can be traced back to the quality of more guaranteed.

Review Item 3: Product Prices

The prices of the 12 products in this review are all taken from the current Jingdong, Taobao, or Tmall online price, and converted into the price per 100g. As you can see from the price list, fish sausages made from pure fish are generally more expensive per 100g than those made from minced fish. However, there is also a Zek Cod Sausage that is more favorable in price and has a higher sex ratio. In addition, fish sausages made from tuna meat are relatively more expensive. Why is this? I checked the selling price of cod and tuna on the market, and the price of cod is around $50-100/catty, while tuna is $200-600/catty, which is much higher than cod. In addition, tuna is rich in unsaturated fatty acids such as DHA, EPA, methionine, taurine minerals and vitamins are very high, but these nutrients are prone to oxidative loss. In order to maximize the maintenance of the nutritional quality of the product, the processing of tuna sausage is more complex and demanding than that of general fish sausage, which increases the cost of the product. The price of deep-sea fish sausage made from tuna is a bit more expensive than that of general cod sausage. The 2 types of tuna sausages are made from frozen minced fish with tuna meat, which is more expensive than normal minced fish sausages, and even more expensive than some pure cod fish sausages. Considering the price of tuna ingredients, I think the two tuna sausages in this review are still relatively cost-effective, especially the Fishing Cute Tuna Meat Sausage, which is a very guaranteed product.

Therefore, taking into account all the factors, I think moms and dads can choose Fishing Lovely Tuna Meat Grain Sausage, which is made of high-quality tuna raw materials, with low energy and sodium content, high protein content and DHA content, and real South Pacific deep-sea tuna meat grains, which is the preferred choice of healthy snacks for babies. If you consider cod sausage, I think zek cod sausage is also good, using pure cod meat made of deep-sea fish sausage, high nutritional value, the key is also cost-effective, is also worth recommending a product.
