Description
Sustainably caught in wild Atlantic waters, our haddock comes from an MSC-certified fishery and is frozen at sea within hours of catch. Haddock is a member of the cod family and has a mild flavor, firm flesh, and moist texture. It is used interchangeably with cod but does have a slightly sweeter taste, which makes it the best white fish for smoking, a culinary tradition in Scotland. Delicious when baked, pan-fried, or made into fish cakes, tacos, or chowder. Individually flash-frozen and vacuum-packaged in recipe-ready portions.

Flash-Frozen is the New Fresh: Much of our seafood comes to you frozen, which means you can enjoy seasonally harvested fish and shellfish any time of the year. Freezing fish rapidly and within hours of catch locks in flavor and freshness, giving us straight-from-the-sea taste without the risk of spoiling. Major advances in rapid-freeze technologies mean seafood can be frozen solid in a matter of seconds, which minimizes damage to cell walls, preserving taste, texture, and moisture levels. The process of freezing seafood has evolved to the point where frozen fish is comparable toâif not better thanâfresh. In fact, consumer taste-tests conducted by Oregon State University consistently put frozen seafood on top. Marine Stewardship Council: The MSC is a global nonprofit organization that works with scientists, fisheries, industry experts, and other nonprofits to improve the way our oceans are fished. In the MSC program, sustainable seafood means that it was fished from stocks with healthy populations, with minimal impact on the environment, and in an area with effective, responsible management. When you see the MSC blue fish label on a Vital Choice product, you can be confident it comes from a certified sustainable source, one that is helping to combat mislabeling and seafood fraud. Our MSC chain of custody certification number is MSC-C-50265. | Wild Atlantic Haddock – Skin-On, Boneless Boneless, 7. 5 Oz Portions (24)
