Freezing Fish

To freeze fish, first clean, fillet, or skin them as you normally would, then follow this procedure:

1. Place the cleaned and rinsed fish in a plastic container and add water to within an inch of the top.
2. After making sure the fish is completely covered, scoop out enough water at the top of the container to allow expansion when water freezes.
3. Tap the sides of the container to remove air bubbles.
4. Place the closed container in the freezer.
5. To thaw fish, remove the frozen block and place it in a strainer, leaving it at room temperature to melt slowly.
