What is this product?
These are desalted skin-on fillets of Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua, from Iceland. The fillets are individually quick frozen, or IQF, and supplied in a 4.5 kg case.
Supplier and format
The product is distributed by Fredditalia and the product information identifies fillets in the 1000 to 1500 g size range. The 4.5 kg case is a clear working unit for frozen receiving and menu planning.
Organoleptic profile
The flesh is white and tender with a delicate flavour. Desalting leaves a clean base for seasoning, while the skin-on format supports roasting, pan cooking and other preparations where the fillet should keep its structure.
Professional uses and dosing
Use IQF pieces to take out only the quantity required for the service. Thaw in the refrigerator, portion according to the menu and taste before adding salt; the fillet size allows the kitchen to plan several portions from one piece when appropriate.
Common mistakes to avoid
Do not thaw the fillets at room temperature or refreeze them after thawing. Avoid adding salt before tasting, overcooking the lean flesh or moving the fillets roughly while they are still partly frozen.
Storage and handling
Keep the case frozen at the temperature stated on the label, with the product protected from temperature changes. Thaw the planned quantity under refrigeration, use it according to the pack instructions and keep raw fish separate from ready-to-eat foods.
