Silver Sillago

What is Silver Sillago (Whiting)?

Silver Sillago, scientifically known as Sillago sihama, is a small to medium-sized marine fish highly valued in tropical waters, including Indonesia. It is commonly referred to as "Whiting" or locally as Ikan Kapas-kapas, a name derived from its strikingly white, soft, and flaky meat, which resembles cotton fibers. This fish has a slender body and is prized for its mild, subtly sweet flavor and delicate texture. These desirable attributes make it a top choice in commercial kitchens and processing plants, particularly for products that require both a clean aesthetic and a fine texture.

In the B2B market, Silver Sillago holds significant strategic value. Its fine flesh and minimal presence of fine bones make it an exceptional raw material for various processed products, ranging from premium dimsum fillings to the base ingredient for modern snack factories. Its stable demand in both domestic and international markets, notably for export to Singapore and Malaysia, underscores its status as an economically valuable fishery commodity. CV Karunia Abadi Semesta guarantees that all Silver Sillago we supply is sourced from responsible and legal catches, safeguarding the quality of your raw materials from the initial catch to the final delivery.

The post-harvest handling process for Silver Sillago at our facilities adheres to the highest hygienic standards. We utilize Individual Quick Freezing (IQF) technology to rapidly freeze the fish. This IQF process is crucial as it locks in all the nutritional content, moisture, and the naturally soft texture of the Sillago immediately after being caught. The result is non-clumping, easily portionable frozen fish, ready for processing without any loss of quality, thereby meeting the stringent standards of hospitals, hotels, and our export partners. This entire procedure aligns with our commitment as a trusted distributor prioritizing food safety and operational excellence.

On average, every 100-gram serving of Silver Sillago contains:

• High Protein: Approximately 18-20 grams of pure protein per 100 grams, vital for tissue repair and growth, which is critical for hospital patients and MBG participants.
• Low Fat: Total fat content is often less than 1 gram, making it an ideal choice for low-fat diets and patients with specific health conditions.
• Calcium and Phosphorus: High mineral content, especially calcium and phosphorus, which are highly effective in supporting bone and dental health, important for the growth of children and the elderly.
• B-Complex Vitamins: Rich in Vitamin B12, essential for nerve function and red blood cell formation.
• Essential Omega-3 (Low): Although Sillago is categorized as a white fish, it still contributes a significant amount of Omega-3 fatty acids, which are beneficial for cardiovascular health.

This nutritional profile makes Silver Sillago highly valuable in formulating diets and nutritional plans, especially for government programs aiming to improve community nutritional status.
