Properly defrosted super-frozen fish tastes just like fresh. Honestly. We tried it ourselves, and we're really fussy. Remove the seafood from the packaging and defrost product in the refrigerator for 8-12 hours before use. (Small items like poke and shrimp will defrost faster while large cuts can take longer.) Do not defrost at room temperature or in water. Flavor and texture are lost this way. Once fully defrosted, use within three days. It is not recommended to refreeze fully thawed product. 

Caviar will defrost quickly at room temperature and may be consumed immediately. Some of our pantry items will not arrive frozen and can be consumed immediately and used within the timeframe specified.  

Orders are packed in an insulated box with dry ice and gel packs. If the seafood arrives partially thawed, it is safe to store in your freezer upon receipt. It is not recommended to refreeze fully thawed product, although that seafood is safe for consumption if it is cold to the touch.

We endeavor to pack all orders to arrive completely frozen, but high outdoor temperatures can be challenging. Seafood that is still cold to the touch is safe to eat, but if you are concerned about your order, please contact us.

Sushi grade is not a technical term. It refers to the freshness and quality of seafood. (For more on what this means, read our Ask a Fishmonger entry on the subject.)

If you've eaten at a high-end restaurant in Boston, there's a very good chance that you've already eaten some of our fish raw in a sushi or crudo. We sell that same quality and freshness to home cooks in our online store.

The most important thing to note for consuming raw fish at home is that lots can go wrong in the kitchen! To keep raw fish safe, it must be properly defrosted under refrigeration. You must keep the seafood scrupulously cold and all surfaces that come in contact with the raw fish (knife, cutting board, countertop) clean and sanitized to avoid cross-contamination. Some find this too stressful and decide to leave raw seafood prep to the professionals. Some home cooks are prepared for the challenge, and safely enjoy sashimi, poke and ceviche at home.

All orders for Home Delivery have been vacuum packed and super-frozen. We do this because we believe it’s the best way to give you the highest quality product, preserved at peak freshness and available on your schedule. Compared to taking a piece of fish and freezing it in your home freezer, super-freezing is superior in every measure of taste and texture. You can read more about this here.

There are also serious environmental benefits with frozen seafood, especially reduced food waste.  Freezing a product at its best means it’s ready when you are and not left spoiling behind a seafood counter or in your fridge. Not letting fish go to waste is the most responsible way of conserving the resource so we can eat seafood for years to come. 

Frozen fish gets a bad rap because the fish that is often frozen wasn’t that great to begin with, but if you’ve eaten sushi, you’ve eaten previously frozen fish. 

Many states legally require that fish be frozen before being served raw to eliminate any potential parasites. Top sushi restaurants are serving great fish that’s been previously super-frozen — just like we do it.

Freezing seafood with a specialized commercial blast freezer and freezing it at home give very different outcomes. Our process is called “Super Freezing” this freezes fish quickly and to a much lower temperature than a conventional freezer, and the taste and texture of the fish are impeccably preserved this way.

OK. The way that these freezers work is connected to the way that water freezes within the cells of the fish. As the water molecules within the cells of the fish start to freeze, they move toward other molecules to form specific patterns. When the molecules pull away from the cells, they leave higher concentrations of enzymes and electrolytes that damage the cell walls. If the freeze time is slow (like in a home freezer), this movement can damage the cells much more than it would during a super freeze because of the large size of the ice crystals. When they freeze quickly, the molecules don’t have time to reposition themselves and smaller crystals form. Large clumps of ice don’t develop, and the enzymes and electrolytes stay isolated, causing less damage to the cells.

With super freezing, a thawed product closely resembles the fresh version in taste, color, texture and even the nutrients that are locked in.

We have a number of fish that have been certified as Kosher by KVH Kosher. For the full list of items, check out our Kosher Certified Collection.
