Learning Objectives

•Define fish preservation and its importance.

•Identify and explain key terminologies used in fish


preservation.

•Understand the different methods of preserving fish.


What is Fish Preservation
-Fish preservation is the process of keeping fish fresh
for a longer time.

-It prevents spoilage and ensures the fish is safe to eat.


Common Causes of Fish Spoilage
Bacteria Growth: Happens when fish are not stored
properly.
Enzymatic Action: Natural chemicals in fish that break
down its quality.
Oxidation: Fats in fish react with air, causing bad smell
or taste.
Environmental Factors: High temperature, poor storage,
or dirty handling.
What is the Importance of Fish
Preservation
1 Keeps fish fresh longer.

2. Prevents waste and spoilage.

3. Allows fish to be transported and sold in far places.

4. Gives us different fish products like smoked fish or canned


fish.
COMMON FISH
PRESERVATION
METHODS
Traditional Methods

SALTING- The process of rubbing or


soaking fish in salt to remove
moisture and prevent the growth of
bacteria. Salt draws out the water,
creating an environment where
bacteria cannot thrive, thus extending
the fish's shelf life.
Traditional Methods

SMOKING- This method involves


exposing fish to smoke from burning
wood or other materials. The smoke
not only dries the fish but also
imparts a distinct flavor while
preventing bacteria growth.
Traditional Methods

DRYING- The process of removing


moisture from fish using sunlight
or mechanical dryers. By reducing
the water content, bacteria and
mold cannot grow, preserving the
fish for long periods.
Traditional Methods

FERMENTATION- method where


natural bacteria or yeast break down
fish to create a new product. This
process preserves fish while adding a
distinctive tangy or savory flavor.
Modern Methods

FREEZING- Fish is cooled to


temperatures below -18°C, where
bacterial activity stops completely.
Freezing preserves both the texture
and flavor of the fish. It is the most
widely used method for long-term
preservation.
Modern Methods

CANNING- Fish is cooked and sealed


in airtight containers, like tins or jars,
which are then sterilized through heat
to kill bacteria. This method ensures a
very long shelf life without
refrigeration.
Modern Methods

VACUUM PACKAGING - The fish is


sealed in airtight plastic packaging
after removing air. This method
prevents oxidation and bacterial
growth, preserving the freshness
of the fish.
Modern Methods

IRRADIATION- This method uses


controlled doses of radiation to
kill bacteria, parasites, and other
harmful organisms in fish. It does
not cook the fish but sterilizes it,
extending its shelf life.
Modern Methods
Modified Atmosphere Packaging
(MAP)- involves altering the
atmosphere inside the packaging
by replacing oxygen with gases
such as nitrogen or carbon
dioxide. This slows down the
spoilage process and extends the
freshness of the fish.
Advantage of Fish Preservation

1 Ensures safety and freshness for consumption.


2 Extends the shelf life of fish.
3 Provides income opportunities through preserved
fish products.

4 Reduces reliance on refrigeration (for traditional


methods).
