Frozen fish

[Parrot of doom]

I've got some frozen Trout in the freezer, been there about 6 months. Never been defrosted.

Will it be allright? I know you can freeze beefs for yonks, just not sure about fishies.

Its probably going to be tough as old boots,dried out and suffering from "freezer burn" but it wont kill you(famous last words)

If you froze an idiot for 6 months...would he still be ok?
Still be the same idiot....but if human, probably dead due to lack of oxygen....and being frozen

If food is frozen, what changes over time to give it a certain time you should keep it frozen? I would have thought that once it's frozen, it doesn't change.

They freeze sperm etc, but I assume that's a whole lot colder on account of the liquid whatever they use.

I've a vague notion it's called cryogenics....but don't quote me on that

Think youre spot on...liquid Nitrogen is what they use I believe....Im also pretty sure they wait till the sperm is "out" first !.....well it was a frozen fish thread wasnt it ?

[rich-uk]

So how cold does something (a fish, for example ) need be before it goes from merely frozen to cryogenicaly frozen? What's the difference?

seen Terminator 2 ??......remember when the Liquid Metal terminator got frozen by the contents of the truck ?....that was liquid Nitrogen.Very scientific I know but basically your average freezer doesnt make anything cold enough to stop it losing moisture over time....Liquid Nitrogen will

just another plaice

Can't tell you the details - or that same catch phrase ' I'm going to have to kill you'.

The amount of people that have signed the official secrets act - without any reason for doing so ( UK eyes B...can be blue or brown ...but not hazel,green or albino pink)

[rich-uk]

So it's all to do with moisture loss then?

[huge]

Thats my understanding of the theory.....but theres bound to be a more detailed/scientific explanation....any physicists/chemists out there ?

[rich-uk]

Makes sense!

Cheers.

[bigtone]

Is that a bit like this then?

Reeeaaaaaaly not sure about that lark.....

Right, I'm gonna cook the bugger tomorrow with some bacon and Tabasco.

If I never post again, you'll know that a dodgy fish has killed a parrot.

When I saw this post I assumed it meant Fish & MrsFish's central heating had broken down

How many stars does your freezer have on the front or inside the door?
