Freezing Costco Salmon

A little more on the dry side when reheating. I'd advise against it. Even though it's 3 lbs of the stuff.

I bet if you ask, they would bring you out a frozen one. There is no way they don't get them already frozen in the package.

Anyone portion it out and vacuum seal it for freezing? How did it defrost and cook? Thanks.

I usually just use it thawed from the store when I buy it but sometimes I'll freeze a filet or two to cold smoke at a later date and that works out fine for me.

I will dry brine it first to remove some of the moisture and add some flavor before cold smoking it. When done, I'll slice it razor thin and eat it with crackers or add some chopped up in Philly Cream Cheese with some fresh herbs from the garden added in to spread on a bagel.

This. I always get the pack that is individually frozen and says "farmed raised in Norway". I never buy any fish that comes from farm raising in Asia. They raise them in large poop tanks. Same with shrimp.

Was looking at some last night and noticed

It's already been frozen once

I am not into thawing and refreezing.

How do you plan on cooking?
