Testing of a new bleeding method in combination with superchilling has shown very promising results for pre-rigor filleted farmed cod.
“In this test we have looked at the possibility of immediate gutting and filleting of unbled fish, followed by rinsing of the fillet. The aim is to considerably shorten the processing time for cod without being left with more blood in the fillet. We have also investigated what effect superchilling had on quality,” explains Bjørn Tore Rotabakk, a researcher at Nofima Mat.
