Abstract
It has been observed that a better frozen product can he obtained by freezing good quality pomfrets transported in insulated containers with sufficient quantity of ice . To enhance the keeping quality and to prevent dehydration and discolouration, a dip in B H A (0.005;/) for 15 minutes and subsequent storage in polythene lined gunny bag at -15C to -18C can be recommended . The products treated in the above manner can be stored well over six months . Periodical glazing at an interval of 3 weeks will also prevent the dehydration to a greater extent.
