Gefilte fish calories: 103 per 125 g
This exact USDA record reports 103 calories for 125 g. That answer belongs to this description and weight; it is not a universal value for every meal that shares the name.

The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 103 calories for USDA reference amount at 125 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 82 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 13 g protein, 0.5 g fiber, and 566 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is fish, cod, pacific, raw (may have been previously frozen), representing 60% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 5 source-input rows in all. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.
The reference amount and 1 piece with broth answer different portion questions. Their values are scaled independently from the same per-100-gram source record.
The household measures attached to this record span roughly 13–205 calories across the listed portions. That is a set of scaled examples—not a confidence interval, a recommendation, or a claim about the full universe of recipes.
Calculated from the smallest and largest usable household measures listed by USDA for this exact FNDDS record; not a confidence interval.
Record-specific decision brief
What the numbers say—and what choice still belongs to you
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2706551: “Gefilte fish.” It separates gram-weight arithmetic, corpus context, label signals, and record selection so one number does not have to answer four different questions.
01 · Portion arithmetic
Three weights, one fixed composition
For FDC 2706551, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 cubic inch” through “1 cup” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 cubic inchUSDA-listed household measure | 16 g | 13 kcal | 1.7 g | 0.1 g | 72 mg |
| 1 piece with brothUSDA-listed household measure | 68 g | 56 kcal | 7.1 g | 0.3 g | 308 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 250 g | 205 kcal | 26 g | 1 g | 1,133 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
Where 100 grams sits inside Seafood mixed dishes
The comparison set contains 94 exact records in the Seafood mixed dishes USDA category. Here, “lower quarter” describes FDC 2706551’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2706551’s 125 g reference weight, none of the compatible strength-side nutrients evaluated here reaches 5% Daily Value; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Sodium. Percentages use FDA label Daily Values, whose general “high” guide begins at 20% Daily Value. This is not an overall score or a personalized target.
Strength-side signals
No compatible strength-side nutrient evaluated here reaches 5% DV at this reference weight, so this page does not manufacture a “strength” from a negligible percentage.
Tradeoff-side signals
Sodium566 mg
≈ 25% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat0.1 g
≈ 0% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Gefilte fish,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706466 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 cubic inch to 1 cup
USDA assigns those measures 16 g and 250 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 13 kcal to 205 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2706466
At an equal 100 g, this record has 6 g more carbohydrate than “Stew, fish.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Fish, cod, Pacific, raw (may have been previously frozen)
The source formulation has 5 input rows; Fish, cod, Pacific, raw (may have been previously frozen) supplies 60% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.
05 · Exact-record choice
Select by literal evidence, not the shortest name
Keep this record when the exact wording “Gefilte fish” fits. Inspect FDC 2706466 when “fish” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 36 more calories, 2.8 g more protein, and 6 g more carbohydrate than “Stew, fish.”
Only this record lists Fish, cod, Pacific, raw (may have been previously frozen); Beverages, water, tap, municipal; Onions, cooked, boiled, drained, without salt; Flour, wheat, all-purpose, enriched, bleached. Only the comparison record lists Beverages, water, tap, drinking; Vegetables as ingredient in stews; Fish, cooked, as ingredient; Shrimp, steamed or boiled. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
4 of the six displayed differences clear the documented materiality screen. It is a reading aid, not a health rating.
Formulation evidence
The listed formulations differ
The formulation rows differ, but the source data do not isolate which component caused any nutrient difference. Input weights describe the standardized formulation—not final plated proportions.
Shared listed inputs: Salt, table.
Listed only in this record: Fish, cod, Pacific, raw (may have been previously frozen); Beverages, water, tap, municipal; Onions, cooked, boiled, drained, without salt; Flour, wheat, all-purpose, enriched, bleached.
Listed only in the comparison: Beverages, water, tap, drinking; Vegetables as ingredient in stews; Fish, cooked, as ingredient; Shrimp, steamed or boiled.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 125 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 piece with broth (68 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 255 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (255 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2706551 with FDC 2706466 at equal mass; use their 125 g and 255 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2706551 versus FDC 2706466 is a comparison of standardized source records—not a measurement of your meal, an overall food-quality rank, or proof that one input caused a difference.

Uncertainty, made actionable
What can change this estimate?
This is a standardized USDA survey-food profile, not a measurement of every preparation. Actual nutrition can change with portion size, species or cut, cooking method, breading, butter, or sauce.
For “Gefilte fish,” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
portion size
When composition is held constant, nutrient totals scale directly with grams. A 20% weight correction produces the same 20% correction to the scaled totals.
- 02
species or cut
Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.
- 03
cooking method
Match the method named by the source—such as baked, fried, boiled, or grilled—before scaling. Preparation can change both water content and the ingredients retained in the finished food.
- 04
breading, butter, or sauce
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
How we estimated this
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2706551 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 82 kcal per 100 g becomes 103 kcal at 125 g through nutrient per portion = nutrient per 100 g × portion grams ÷ 100; this page adds no second nutrition estimate.
About the serving label: USDA describes the underlying survey portion as “Quantity not specified.” We display it as a USDA reference amount because it is a database comparison point—not a suggested portion or a claim about what most people should eat.
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024
FoodData Central ID: 2706551
FNDDS food code: 27250060
The scaling for FDC 2706551 can be exact while the match to “Gefilte fish” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 125 g weight, 5-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
