Abstract

Fish processing plants/industries add value as well as shelf life to the harvested fish. Such plants have facilities for curing, drying, freezing, filleting, canning etc. Processing of fish includes the preparation of minced fish meat which forms the raw material for various ready-to-cook and readyto- eat products. The minced fish and fish paste is used in the domestic markets for preparation of various culinary products and also has a very good export demand in the form of Surimi. This export market provides an opportunity for preparation of high quality fish paste, through utilization of small fishes with low or no value in the domestic markets.
