Chef tips:
• Rapid Freezing helps maintaining seafood nutrient, taste and texture, at the same time minimizes dripping after defrosting and prevents deterioration of texture and taste.
• Rapid Freezing also prevents the shrimp from sticking together, so you can use just the amount you need. Same goes with squid, octopus and other shell seafood.
• Quick Cooling helps speed up the seasoning process because sauces penetrate faster into the foods.
