Pomfrets are scombriform fish belonging to the family Bramidae, a family that currently includes 20 species across seven genera. Several species are important food sources for humans, especially Brama brama on the Indian subcontinent, and the fish meat is white in color. The name pomfret likely traces to the Portuguese pampo, referring to various fish such as the blue butterfish.
