If you want to cook fish for lunch or dinner, you need to take a responsible approach to choosing this product in the store.
You need to pay attention to the packaging and information on the label.
The place of catch and packaging must be indicated. It is believed that the closer to the catch zone fresh fish is frozen, the better.
You should not choose only frozen parts, for example, only steaks or fillets.
It is better to take a whole carcass. It should be examined.
If the scales have fallen off in places and the belly is sunken, this may indicate that the fish was frozen stale. It is better to refuse such a product.
Pay attention to the color of the fish. It should be natural. There should be no icy cloudy growths, unevenness, or yellowness.
If possible, it is advisable to smell the product.
The correct fish aroma is almost elusive. In this case, you can confidently say that the product is good and frozen correctly. If the fish smell is strong, then it is better to leave this product on the counter.
