Escabetx is a traditional Catalan and broader Mediterranean condiment or sauce, typically made from olive oil, vinegar, onion, and spices, used to marinate and preserve fish, vegetables, or meat. It is most commonly encountered as a prepared dressing or accompaniment rather than eaten on its own, and plays a central role in dishes like escabetxed sardines or mackerel. Per 100 g, escabetx provides 130 kcal, 0.3 g of protein, 13 g of fat, and 2.5 g of carbohydrates, with very little fibre (0.2 g) or sugar (0.5 g). The most notable mineral is sodium at 350 mg per 100 g, reflecting its preserved, seasoned nature, alongside 60 mg of potassium and 12 mg of calcium. No glycemic index data is available. It is compatible with vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian, gluten-free, dairy-free, paleo, and Mediterranean dietary patterns.

How many calories in escabetx?

Escabetx contains 130 kcal per 100 g, with the majority coming from its fat content of 13 g, primarily from olive oil. Typical serving sizes are small — a few tablespoons as a marinade or dressing — so calorie intake per use is usually modest.

How much sodium is in escabetx?

Escabetx contains 350 mg of sodium per 100 g, which is relatively high given its role as a seasoned, vinegar-based preserving sauce. This is worth keeping in mind if it is used generously or combined with other salty ingredients.

Is escabetx vegan-friendly?

Escabetx as a sauce or marinade — made from oil, vinegar, and aromatics — is vegan and vegetarian. However, when the term refers to a complete dish with fish or meat, it would no longer be vegan, so it depends on how it is prepared and served.
