Your Guide to Thawing Seafood
Thawing Fish
The safest way to thaw your fish is under refrigeration. We recommend removing the product from the original packaging, placing it in a plastic bag or on a plate, and allowing it to thaw in the refrigerator for 6-8 hours, or overnight.
If you require faster thawing, we recommend placing the vacuum-sealed portions in a bowl of COLD water for 30-45 minutes. Once thaw, remove from the packaging, rinse gently with cool water and pat dry.
Keep refrigerated until serving or preparing. We recommend consuming within 2-3 days of thawing.
