Product Description
Our frozen Ayu (Sweetfish) from the Masumine brand are premium freshwater fish sourced from Japan's pristine rivers. Known for their distinct aroma, often compared to melon, and their delicate, sweet flavor, these fish are ideal for classic Japanese dishes.

With a firm texture and thin skin, these elegant fish are perfect for traditional salt-grilling (Ayu Shioyaki) and are a must-have for summer and autumn menus in high-end Japanese restaurants. Each pack contains 14 fish, totaling 1 kg, making them a perfect fit for kitchens that prioritize precise, beautiful plating.

 
Usage
Slowly thaw the fish by placing them in the refrigerator (0-5°C) for 6-8 hours.
Gently rinse the fish and pat them dry before cooking.
The most popular method is to lightly salt the skin and grill them over charcoal or in an oven. They can also be used in Japanese-style hot pots.
 
Storage
Store in a freezer at -18°C.
Once thawed, use immediately within 24 hours.
Avoid refreezing to maintain the fish's shape and quality.
