Khan Fresh Persian Gulf Barracuda Fish Steak (Kootar / Ghalaye)

Purchasing whole round fish incurs 35% to 40% butchery waste (head, tail fins, viscera) alongside skilled labor overhead. Khan pre-cut steaks deliver 100% usable net weight with calibrated thicknesses, eliminating kitchen odor, preparation labor bottlenecks, and messy disposal costs.

The minimum order quantity for wholesale Barracuda steaks is 25 kg. Steaks are arranged in sanitary vacuum skin-pack trays and shipped inside insulated EPS cartons layered with leak-proof refrigerant gels via air or refrigerated road freight.

Barracuda flesh is whiter, leaner, and slightly firmer than Spanish Mackerel. Its low lipid profile and dense cellular turgor make it exceptionally resilient against falling apart in simmered stews, while shining in pan-fried crispy breaded preparations and quick garlic-butter sautés.

Sanitary bandsaws are fitted with micrometric thickness fences and laser alignment guides. Fish carcasses are portioned under standardized feeds into uniform 2 to 2.5 cm slices, guaranteeing identical heat conductivity and cooking times across all portions.

The VSP polymeric film encapsulates the steak like a hermetic second skin, completely evacuating atmospheric oxygen. This halts intracellular drip loss, eliminates surface dehydration from reefer airflow, and preserves the lustrous white flesh tone for up to 5 days fresh.

All shipments of Khan Barracuda steaks travel with electronic quarantine transit certificates featuring online QR tracking from the Bushehr Veterinary Directorate. Valid corporate tax invoices with statutory VAT are registered directly via national fiscal portals.

Sealed vacuum trays must be maintained between 0 and 2°C in walk-in chillers, retaining prime freshness for up to 5 days. Once unsealed, steaks should be cooked within 48 hours; for extended storage, freezing at -18°C is recommended.
