Fish for your health: Hake is a good source of Vitamin B. White fleshed fish is traditionally high in protein and low in fat. However, all fish provide an excellent source of Omega 3, an essential fatty acid which helps in lowering blood cholesterol and maintaining a healthy circulatory system.

Suggested wines: Dry, austere and crisp, Chenin Blanc and Pinot Grigio are well suited to this lean, white fish when cooked simply.
