Hake are part of the cod family. They are commonly thriving at depths of more than 1,000 metres. In the Merlucciidae family, twelve hake species are counted. Although texture and taste may differ by species, all seem to have a relatively mild taste, soft texture and smaller flakes than cod. Hake’s skin is greyer than a cod’s greenish-yellow skin. The meat of the hake is a bit more tender than cod. Hake’s flesh flakes are smaller than Cod’s.
Although both fish possess white flesh, the flesh of the hake is juicier. Hake’s flesh is tastier more than cod. With an exquisite taste and a smooth, somewhat creamy texture, Hake is perfectly delicious. It’s healthy, and it’s also versatile. Frozen Fish Direct orders big fish between 3 to 5 kg and slice them into portions of juicy thick fillets. These thick hake steaks may be grilled or fried or used in stews and soups.
Sea-frozen hake, efficiently processed in both deck landing and freezer loading, if thawed, are almost impossible to distinguish when from the fresh fish stored for a few days in ice. The end product could be the best market if fresh seafood and fish are frozen at sea. The gutting of fish occurs as soon as the fish is captured, not just to maintain continuity of supply but also to decrease spoiling. The heading of the fish is also done. Headed fish create a much more compressed block, and heading enables bigger fish to be frozen. Hake fish are then filleted and stored as fillets. And along the actual production process, chilled conditions must exist. Fish are being placed in bins of equal quantities and should be relatively close to the freezers before freezing.
Delectable, versatile, relatively easy to cook fish. Hake belongs to the white and lean fish category because of its low saturated fats content.
