Dried Pangasius Kunyit, also known as Khô Cá Dứa, is a popular dried fish delicacy from the Mekong Delta region in Vietnam. This premium product is made from farm-raised Pangasius sp., lightly seasoned with salt and sugar, and half-dried to preserve its delicate flavor. Pangasius Kunyit is an excellent sustainable seafood choice, widely recognized for its nutritional value and culinary versatility.
Pangasius Kunyit - Cá Dứa belongs to the Pangasius family and can adapt to freshwater and brackish water environments. In Vietnam, they are mainly found living in the Mekong River system. The fish has a similar shape to Pangasius but with several distinguishing features such as: a long cylindrical body, pectoral fins without spines, and tail fins with orange-yellow or purple ends. Their abdomen is purple (similar to the color of a young pineapple), with a purple belly, and the back is white-blue.
The distinctive feature of Cá Dứa (Pangasius Kunyit) is its pinkish-white flesh, low fat content, firm texture, sweet taste, and lack of fishy smell, making it highly popular among the people of Southern Vietnam. In the meals of riverine inhabitants, Cá Dứa is often found in sour soup dishes cooked with sour hog plum (bần chua) or braised in a clay pot, served with garden-picked vegetables or those found along riverbanks. In restaurants, Cá Dứa is considered a specialty dish due to its natural, wild-caught origin, and it is caught in very limited quantities. Dried Cá Dứa, especially the product made in Cần Giờ District, Ho Chi Minh City, attracts many tourists. The fish is fried crispy and enjoyed with rice balls and a bit of pickled vegetables.
