Freezing Vacuum-Sealed Mackerel Filets

 

Deboned Mackerel Filets

Mackerel is one of the healthiest fish because it has a very high mono-unsaturated fat content and is high in Omega-3 poly-unsaturated fats. Unfortunately, mackerels are only available in my local fish market during the colder seasons affording to freeze them when in abundance. Fatty fish freeze well without losing their texture after slow thawing.

Frozen Vacuum-Sealed Portion

The storage time of frozen food can be extended by preventing freezer-burn, which occurs when water, subliming from the frozen tissue-bound state in to the surrounding  air-filled spaces, recrystallizes at the outer cold container walls, actually ‘freeze-drying’ the tissue. Vacuum packing of fresh wet filets before freezing eliminates the air and water pumping conditions.
