Winter Food. Fish and Bread.

The #foodphotography. Inspiration from cold winter day!

Winter is the coldest season of the year. My Previous POST seems truly cold.
Breakfast is the base of the day. And my base started with black bread with sprat. I a drink with coffee, but some people drink with vodka aside.

What is Sprat?

A sprat is the common name applied to a group of forage fish belonging to the genus Sprattus in the family Clupeidae. The term also is applied to a number of other small sprat-like forage fish. Like most forage fishes, sprats are highly active, small oily fish. They travel in large schools with other fish and swim continuously throughout the day.

In Northern Europe, European sprats are commonly smoked and preserved in oil, which retains a strong smoky flavor.

Sprat, if smoked, is considered to be one of the foods highest in purine content. People who suffer from gout or high uric acid in the blood should avoid eating such foods.

Most importantly, sprat contain long-chained polyunsaturated fatty acids, including eicosapentaenoic acid , and docosahexaenoic acid . It is present in amounts that are comparable to Atlantic Salmon.
