Supermarket fish... advice sought.

Hi all

So at my local supermarket fish is sold I believe in 3 ways:

1) frozen fish in the freezers.

2) vacuum seal packed fish in the refrigerators.

3) a fishmonger stood behind an ice counter full of raw fish.

I'm wanting to start eating more fish the new 2020 me lol but I'm confused as to why fish is sold in these 3 ways or what the benefits or differences are.

Does anyone here know?

Thanks in advance

Chicken can be bought the same way

Just a question of each being fresher

Frozen will be the cheaper option.

Most fresh fish in supermarkets has been frozen first then thawed out

I'd choose the frozen option I think it's the safest health wise

Frozen fish lasts longer. You generally cook it from frozen too.

Some people prefer fresh.

At the fishmongers counter you can buy bigger or smaller portions according to what you want/need.

Hope that helps!

Daft as it may sound the frozen fish is the freshest, as it is frozen at sea within an hour of being caught. the fish on ice on the counter will be atleast a week old and will be in worse condition.

thank you c4 documentery

Your local fishmonger.

He will only buy what he believes to be good. Will be able to offer advice on how to cook. And make sure it's all filleted properly and descaled.

However if you just want to spice it up which will hide the flavour of a nice piece of fish. Use the cheapest.

If you do source frozen fish try and get frozen at source as tastes a lot nicer. Its actually frozen at sea not days or week later.
