Salmon Handling

One mistake a lot of people make in handling salmon is the way they freeze salmon .

It’s also important to realize that the way that you thaw salmon will have an impact on the quality of the fish.

A lot of fish you buy frozen, or freeze your self, will come in a vacuum pack. It is important that you remove the fish from the vacuum pack while frozen and allow it to thaw slowly on a tray covered with saran wrap. If you allow the fish to that in the vacuum pack, it can become mushy, discolour the flesh and ultimately spoil the product.

So thaw your salmon slow and out of the pack and you’ll have quality fish every time!
