Pick up notes
Our fish is kept in the best possible, temperature-controlled, conditions at all stages of storage and delivery.
IMPORTANT: Collection and care instructions.
Please pick up from your hub as soon as possible after the delivery date. (This maximises the shelf life when you get home). To ensure that your fish reaches your home in prime condition please take a cool box/bag, with a freezer ice block or two in, in order to maintain the optimum temperature of ≤ 4⁰C.
Return home immediately and place the items in your fridge or freezer in line with the following instructions.
- Items to be stored at or below ≤ 4⁰C
- Items which will not be eaten within the “use-by” date should be placed in your freezer on the day of collection and stored in line with the manufacturers' recommendations.
- Any fish which you have frozen, should be thawed in the fridge overnight before cooking.
- Frozen fish should be checked before cooking to make sure it is thawed thoroughly.
- Taking into account the ambient temperature of your kitchen, allow the fish to come to room temperature (18-20⁰C) before cooking.
- Make sure you do not allow it to get too hot or leave it too long before cooking, 20-30 minutes maximum should suffice.
- For best results the fish should be rinsed under cold running water and then patted dry, using a clean “J cloth”, or good quality kitchen towel, before cooking.
