How does vacuum packing preserve the frozen fish?
A. The vacuum pack process enhances the freezer storage time, allowing you to store your frozen fish for 12-24 months as long as the seal is not broken. Vacuum packed fish is not shelf stable, so it must remain frozen prior to use (-5F or colder is best). When you are ready to enjoy your fish, just break the seal and thaw the fish in the refrigerator. St. Jean’s Cannery does not use any artificial preservatives.
