How can I properly freeze seafood to maintain its quality?

To maintain quality, first clean and prepare the seafood. Then, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil.

Should I use a vacuum sealer or is regular wrapping enough?

A vacuum sealer is ideal as it removes air and prevents freezer burn, but regular wrapping can work if done tightly.

How long can I keep seafood in the freezer?

Generally, seafood can be frozen for 3 to 6 months, depending on the type. Fatty fish like salmon should be used sooner.

What about thawing? What's the best way to do that?

Thaw seafood in the refrigerator overnight or use cold water for quicker thawing. Avoid thawing at room temperature.
