Braised immediately upon receipt of them still in perfect frozen state: normal quality as expected.

Swai is one of my family’s favorite white meat fish. It’s clean, no bones to worry, easy to prepare and tasty. Today’s delivery was satisfactory. Fish arrived frozen, and fresh (as always). After washing with lemon and salt, it was seasoned to my liking, and added to soup. Swai is such a versatile fish, can be fried, curried, stewed, baked etc. I’m happy with this product.
