PROCESSES OF ACHIEVING THE FLAVOR RESETTLEMENT IN FISH WITH NO SCALE AND PROCESS FOR TREATING AN AQUATIC ENVIRONMENT

摘要

A method of reinstating acceptable flavor to catfish determined to have an unacceptable earthy, musty flavor comprising treating an aquaculture with an inorganic peroxide which releases hydrogen peroxide into the aquatic environment, and subjecting the fish to the treated environment for a time sufficient to reinstate acceptable flavor. Hydrogen peroxide itself or inorganic peroxide which release hydrogen peroxide, such as sodium percarbonate peroxyhydrate, may be used. Flavor reinstatement is achieved in as little as 72 hours.
