Dorada is a semi-fat fish, very rich and healthy in the children's diet, although it has the disadvantage of the bones. Probably if they were sold in fillets without thorns, we would buy more often for my daughters. What I don't know if I would buy are gilthead sausages special for children.
Researchers from the Polytechnic University of Valencia are working on the application of new technologies for the design and development of new gilthead products from aquaculture. This research has obtained a new product, especially aimed at children: gilthead sausages enriched with fibers and without thorns.
The works have been published in different scientific publications of the food area, the most recent of them 'Food Bioprocess Technology'.
Trying to circumvent the "repairs" that many consumers have regarding fish (smell, taste, consistency ...) these sausages have been created that, they say, contain a fish content of almost 80% and that incorporates soluble fibers that facilitate the development of a beneficial intestinal flora.
The idea also arises because the consumption in children and adolescents in Western Europe is based on proteins and fats and they barely eat foods that provide them with the fiber in the amount necessary to cover the daily recommendations.
Although for that I propose eat more fruit and vegetables, which are foods high in fiber, and we can leave artificial fibers (or artificially treated).
In addition, regarding the inconvenience of the bones, it is not the fish that contain the most, so it is not too heavy to clean the sea bream. Nor is the price of the highest, if they are breeding, and its taste is delicious, so we try to be present in the family menu from time to time.
The sea bream is not among the fish restricted in childhood because of its high mercury content, which can be safely consumed.
I don't know what consistency, taste, smell or price these will have sea bream sausages, but for now we will continue with the whole gilthead and with 100% fish content. With baked potatoes and tomatoes ... delicious!
