Handling protocols

  • Inspect before use for mould, insect damage, rancid or sour odours, and unusually damp or soft areas.
  • Remove bones, skin or other parts as preferred for the recipe; rinse briefly only if needed, then cook before eating.
  • Smoking does not make spoiled fish safe. Discard fish with visible mould, heavy insect infestation, or strong sour/rancid odours.
  • If a batch is soft or moist-smoked rather than thoroughly dried, treat it as perishable and keep it chilled.

Storage tips

  • If the fish is dry and firm, store airtight in a cool, dry place away from humidity; Meal05 quality target: best used within about 1–2 months after delivery.
  • If the fish is soft or moist-smoked, refrigerate at 4°C or below and use promptly, or freeze for longer storage.
  • Discard if mould appears, insects are present, the fish becomes damp, or it develops a strong rancid or sour smell.
