Saba is a vigorous and intensely flavored fish whose rich oil content requires skill and creativity to emphasize its flavor. Saba can be simply grilled with salt or seasoned with strong marinades.
In Domo’s AGE SABA, the saba is lightly fried and flavored with Domo’s original jalapeño pepper sauce. Guests at Domo marvel at this exotic dish and the mingling of the Japanese and authentic Mexican flavors Both flavors have powerful character yet make a perfect match.
There is no need to worry about the saba being deep fried in this Domo side dish. Domo uses the finest, freshest oils for frying at just the right temperature, which actually draws excess oil from the fish leaving it light and delicious. Old or overused oil and heavy batter make fried foods unappetizing and unhealthy. Domo is very proud to serve AGE SABA that is prepared correctly to the last detail.
In households everywhere, hungry family members hurry home from their day and shout, “What’s for Dinner?” the moment they step in the door. Before the arrival of Western culture in Japan, “SABA” was what’s for dinner. Saba was once abundant in Japan and was one of the most commonly eaten sea foods because it was inexpensive and plentiful. Since the introduction of Western cuisine to Japan, young people often turn their nose up at eating “old-fashioned” saba, hungering instead for more trendy sources of protein, such as beef or pork, and especially ham, bacon and sausages.
Recently saba has been regaining popularity for its health benefits, and it commands a much higher price tag on today’s market. Saba is an excellent source of protein, potassium, niacin and vitamin B-12. Recently, scientists and health professionals have learned about the health benefits of the omega-3 fatty acids in dark-meat fish, such as sardines, herring and mackerel. For example, it has been reported that the native people of Greenland and Alaska who eat a diet that’s high in fish containing fatty acids have a low death rate from heart disease. It has also been reported that Japanese people who eat fish eight times a week or more were at a significantly lower risk of heart attack or heart disease compared to those who ate these dark meat fish only once a week.
