Palamita is a pelagic fish common in the Mediterranean with organoleptic qualities similar to those of tuna, but its meat has a stronger flavor. It is rich in Omega 3. Specimens caught in late autumn lend themselves well to conservation in extra virgin olive oil. It is interesting to know how its scales are used in Japanese cuisine to produce the stock “dashi”
