How to choose to buy fresh fish roe
- When choosing fish roe, you should select those with a round and plump body as these are fresh fish that have just been frozen and have good meat. Those that are long and flat may have been frozen for a long time, so the fish meat will no longer be delicious.
- You should carefully observe the packaging, as this type of fish is often imported directly, so checking the packaging date and expiration date is very important.
- You should buy fish at supermarkets or reputable food stores to ensure quality, as consuming expired fish can be very harmful to health.
