Handling protocols

  • Keep the fish cold continuously and reject packs that are torn, soft, heavily frosted or show signs of thawing and refreezing.
  • Thaw in the refrigerator overnight, or in a sealed bag under cold water if cooking immediately; never thaw on the kitchen counter.
  • Keep raw fish separate from ready-to-eat foods and clean hands, knives, boards and work surfaces after handling.
  • Cook finfish to an internal temperature of 63°C (145°F).

Storage tips

  • Keep frozen at about −18°C until needed.
  • For best eating quality, aim to use frozen horse mackerel within about 2–3 months.
  • Once thawed in the refrigerator, use within 1–2 days; in very hot conditions above 32°C, do not leave it unrefrigerated for more than 1 hour.
