Whiting, in crumbs, fried in dripping, weighed with bones and skin

Whiting is a white fish. This entry describes whiting coated in crumbs and fried in dripping, with the weight including bones and skin. It mainly provides protein and fat, with some carbohydrate from the crumb coating. Per 100g, it contains 16g of protein, 9.3g of fat, 5.2g of saturated fat and 6.3g of carbohydrate.

Protein is needed for the maintenance and repair of body tissues. The crumb coating and frying fat affect the nutrient content, so these figures differ from those for plain whiting. The saturated fat content is worth noting for people monitoring their saturated fat intake. Full nutrient figures, including energy and salt, are shown in the tables below.
