Processing Monkfish

It is important that careful care and storing be used when dealing with any form of fish to minimise the risk of food contamination and ensure a safe and quality product. E. Coli and Salmonella are pathogens that can cause foodborne diseases and are often present in fish. Proper preparation of fresh monkfish for storage would preserve it and retain its quality for a prolonged period. As quickly as possible, freshly captured monkfish will be gutted and washed and then preserved at the proper freezing temperature. At 0°F or less, the monkfish would be frozen in a freezer. To shield it from air exposure, glazing seals the fish with a thick sheet of ice. After the fish has been glazed, lesser freezer space would be needed.
