Safe storage

Oceanic and freshly frozen at -40 degrees in only 4 hours after beeing fished, the mackerel from Minus22 retains all its nutrients, its taste and own texture, for extra freshness.

The whole frozen mackerel is transported in controlled cold conditions until the final destination, when reaching its favorite temperature, -22 degrees.

Preparation

The consumption of frozen products reduces the waste of food.
Recommendation: the fish should be defrosted in the refrigerator a day before cooking. Don’t use the microwave or water. This way, the fish will keep its structure, flavor and nutrients.
The mackerel can be baked, fried, grilled or smoked.
