Scientific name: Fish that has been subjected to freezing in a manner to preserve the inherent quality
of the fish by reducing their average temperature to -18ºC (0ºF) or lower, and which are then kept at a temperature
of -18ºC (0ºF) or lower (IIR/OECD Code of Practice for frozen fish). The reduction of temperature in the fish has
to be achieved in a sufficiently short time to give the product best quality; this depends on the type of product
(fillets, whole fish, precooked fish, etc. Regulations with regard to maximum time have been laid down in various
countries, e.g. in U.K. the temperature of the whole fish is to be lowered from 32ºF to 23ºF (0ºC to -5ºC) or lower
in not more than two hours and the fish be kept in the freezer until the temperature of the warmest part of the
fish has been reduced to -5ºF (-20ºC) or lower (U.K. definition of Quick frozen fish); according to U.S. recommendations
the temperature should be lowered to 0ºF (-18ºC) in 36 hours or less. The term 'frozen fish' is synonymously used
with Deep frozen fish and Quick frozen fish.
