Cooking Suggestions

Thawing Tips

• Best: thaw in the refrigerator; keep in its packaging until the fillets are pliable.
• To speed up: after sealing, place under running cold water; avoid warm or hot water.
• After thawing, gently press with paper towels to absorb surface moisture for better flavor.

Home Cooking Methods

• Pan-fry: use a little oil over medium heat; cook both sides until golden and fully cooked. A squeeze of lemon can enhance the taste.
• Oven/air fryer: brush with a little oil or sauce; adjust time and temperature according to your appliance. A lightly charred surface adds aroma.
