Fibata

Channa is a genus of predatory fish in the family channidae, commonly known as snakeheads, native to freshwater habitats in asia. this genus contains about 50 scientifically described species. the genus has a wide natural distribution extending from iraq in the west, to indonesia and china in the east, and parts of siberia in the far east. a particularly high richness of species exists in myanmar (burma) and northeastern india, and many channa species live nowhere else. in contrast, a few widespread species have been introduced to several regions outside their natural range, where they often become invasive. the large and medium-sized channa species are among the most common staple food fish in several asian countries, and they are extensively cultured. apart from their importance as a food fish, snakeheads are consumed in some regions as a traditional medicine for wound healing and reducing postoperative pain and discomfort, and collected for the international aquarium pet trade.all snakeheads are highly predatory, and the diets of the various species of channa include fish, amphibians (like frogs), snakes, rodents, birds, and invertebrates (insects and crustaceans). they have a labyrinth organ, which allows them to breathe air for short periods, and they use this adaptation to travel across land in the event that their habitat becomes inhospitable. they are mostly solitary or live in monogamous pairs that are highly aggressive towards outsiders of their own species, but c. pleurophthalma often occurs in small groups. larger species are mostly nestbrooding (making a nest of vegetation at the water surface), and the dwarfs mostly paternal mouthbrooding, but exceptions occur; the large c. barca is a paternal mouthbrooder and the dwarf c. bleheri is a free-spawner (the eggs float to the surface where the parents take care of them, but they do not mouthbrood or built a nest).

Seafood

Seafood is any form of sea life regarded as food by humans, prominently including fish and shellfish. shellfish include various species of molluscs (e.g. bivalve molluscs such as clams, oysters and mussels, and cephalopods such as octopus and squid), crustaceans (e.g. shrimp, crabs, and lobster), and echinoderms (e.g. sea cucumbers and sea urchins). historically, marine mammals such as cetaceans (whales and dolphins) as well as seals have been eaten as food, though that happens to a lesser extent in modern times. edible sea plants such as some seaweeds and microalgae are widely eaten as sea vegetables around the world, especially in asia. seafood is an important source of (animal) protein in many diets around the world, especially in coastal areas. semi-vegetarians who consume seafood as the only source of meat are said to adhere to pescetarianism. the harvesting of wild seafood is usually known as fishing or hunting, while the cultivation and farming of seafood is known as aquaculture and fish farming (in the case of fish). most of the seafood harvest is consumed by humans, but a significant proportion is used as fish food to farm other fish or rear farm animals. some seafoods (i.e. kelp) are used as food for other plants (a fertilizer). in these ways, seafoods are used to produce further food for human consumption. also, products such as fish oil and spirulina tablets are extracted from seafoods. some seafood is fed to aquarium fish, or used to feed domestic pets such as cats. a small proportion is used in medicine, or is used industrially for nonfood purposes (e.g. leather).

Tilapia

Tilapia ( tih-lah-pee-ə) is the common name for nearly a hundred species of cichlid fish from the coelotilapine, coptodonine, heterotilapine, oreochromine, pelmatolapiine, and tilapiine tribes (formerly all were "tilapiini"), with the economically most important species placed in the coptodonini and oreochromini. tilapia are mainly freshwater fish inhabiting shallow streams, ponds, rivers, and lakes, and less commonly found living in brackish water. historically, they have been of major importance in artisanal fishing in africa, and they are of increasing importance in aquaculture and aquaponics. tilapia can become a problematic invasive species in new warm-water habitats such as australia, whether deliberately or accidentally introduced, but generally not in temperate climates due to their inability to survive in cold water. tilapia is the fourth-most consumed fish in the united states dating back to 2002. the popularity of tilapia came about due to its low price, easy preparation, and mild taste.

Turkey

The turkey is a large bird in the genus meleagris, native to north america. there are two extant turkey species: the wild turkey (meleagris gallopavo) of eastern and central north america and the ocellated turkey (meleagris ocellata) of the yucatán peninsula in mexico. males of both turkey species have a distinctive fleshy wattle, called a snood, that hangs from the top of the beak. they are among the largest birds in their ranges. as with many large ground-feeding birds (order galliformes), the male is bigger and much more colorful than the female. the earliest turkeys evolved in north america over 20 million years ago. they share a recent common ancestor with grouse, pheasants, and other fowl. the wild turkey species is the ancestor of the domestic turkey, which was domesticated approximately 2,000 years ago.

Zebu

The zebu (; bos indicus or bos taurus indicus), sometimes known in the plural as indicine cattle or humped cattle, is a species or subspecies of domestic cattle originating in the indian sub-continent. zebu are characterised by a fatty hump on their shoulders, a large dewlap, and sometimes drooping ears. they are well adapted to withstanding high temperatures, and are farmed throughout the tropical countries, both as pure zebu and as hybrids with taurine cattle, the other main type of domestic cattle. zebu are used as draught and riding animals, dairy cattle, and beef cattle, as well as for byproducts such as hides and dung for fuel and manure. some small breeds such as the miniature zebu are also kept as pets. in 1999, researchers at texas a&m university successfully cloned a zebu.in some regions, such as parts of india, cattle, especially zebu, have significant religious meaning.

Vary

Cooked rice refers to rice that has been cooked either by steaming or boiling. the terms steamed rice or boiled rice are also commonly used. any variant of asian rice (both indica and japonica varieties), african rice or wild rice, glutinous or non-glutinous, long-, medium-, or short-grain, of any colour, can be used. rice for cooking can be whole grain or milled. cooked rice is used as a base for various fried rice dishes (e.g. chǎofàn, khao phat), rice bowls/plates (e.g. bibimbap, chazuke, curry rice, dal bhat, donburi, loco moco, panta bhat, rice and beans, rice and gravy), rice porridges (e.g. congee, juk), rice balls/rolls (e.g. gimbap, onigiri, sushi, zongzi), as well as rice cakes and desserts (e.g. mochi, tteok, yaksik). rice is a staple food in not only asia and latin america, but across the globe, and is considered the most consumed food in the world. the u.s. department of agriculture classifies rice as part of the grains food group. nutritionally, 200 g of cooked steamed white rice contributes 60 g (2 oz) toward the daily recommended 170 and 200 g (6 and 7 oz) of grains for women and men, respectively, and is considered a good source of micronutrients such as zinc and manganese.

Oxtails

Oxtail soup is a soup made with beef tails. the use of the word "ox" in this context is a legacy of nomenclature; no specialized stock of beef animals are used and tails may come from bovines other than oxen. it is believed by some that oxtail soup was invented in spitalfields in london in the seventeenth century by french huguenot and flemish immigrants, from the tails of animals. different versions of oxtail soup exist: korean; chinese; a fried/barbecued oxtail combined with soup variation which is a popular dish in indonesia where it is called as sop buntut; an ethnic dish of the american south which traces its lineage back to the pre-revolutionary war era; and a thick, rich, gravy-like soup popular in the united kingdom since the 18th century. creole oxtail soup is made from a tomato base with oxtails, potatoes, green beans, corn, mirepoix, garlic, and herbs and spices.
