  1. Easy and Quick Tips for Choosing a Right Fish

  2. Overview • Purchasing fish turns very easy and simple when you know what to look exactly for. • A simple inspection for seafood selections will let you confirm the quality of the fish whether the fish is fresh or pre-frozen; healthy or unhealthy.Buying fresh fish online through Minz Meat can ease your process of inspection because it provides first grade quality meat but even then inspection is must when it comes to meat..

  3. Eyes speak a lot Here are some tips that would make your purchase for fish easy and effective. Follow these simple inspection steps for choosing a fresh, clean and hygienic fish. The very first thumb rule is checking the eyes. They should be crystal clear, wet and shiny with no sunken features. If you find such a fish, you can bet with reasonable confidence that the fish is fresh healthy and fit for consumption. If you come across cloudy eyes fish then immediately reject it as the reason behind cloudy eyes is that once the fish starts deteriorating the eyes dry out and become cloudy, sunk in and shrivel away, this is a clear indication that the fish is unhealthy and unfit for consumption.

  4. 2.Check the fins A healthy and well-handled fish should always have tail and dorsal fins that should look healthy, wet and intact. A fish with torn and ragged fins indicates that the fish was mishandled and if the fish has dry and brittle fins that mean that is an older fish. Torn and ragged fins indicate that the fish was mishandled and was held too long after been netted.

  5. 3. Touch the Scales: The body of the fishes are designed with scales that protect them from the harsh watery environment. A fresh fish will always have scales that are shiny and firm which is a veritable armor against the element. In case when you run your hands over the scales, and they tend to shred and appear dry and flaky it indicates that the fish isn’t fresh.

  6. 4. Check the Gills Check the gills for its vitality and color. A fresh fish's gills will always appear bright red and slowly darken over time. The more vivid color, the fresher is the fish. The gills should also be clean and cold, not slimy. Brownish red gills means that the fish is an old fish. If the fish is an old one, the color of the gills become dark brown or even black, indicating that the fish's myoglobin has oxidized into metmyoglobin, that is brick red-brown color. Mucus will build in gills as time passes, too, so as the fish ages and so the fish gills becomes slimy and sticky.

  7. 5.Snift the fish A fresh fish should not smell ‘fishy.' If in case the fish is smelling fishy and foul it means it has started deteriorating.

  8. 6. Poke the flesh If the fishmonger allows it, try touching the fish for further indications for the health and freshness of the fish. The fish should feel cold, wet, and slippery, but not sticky. When pressed or poked, it should spring back to its natural shape. If it doesn't spring back, it's a sure sign that the meat of the fish has softened and unfit for consumption it is also no longer worthy of your money.
