Specifications & Details

Product Description

Narrow-barred Spanish Mackerel, commercially known as Kingfish or Shir Mahi, represents the apex of commercial marine finfish across the Persian Gulf. Handled under the Khan brand at Bushehr docks, this fish undergoes immediate sanitary evisceration: viscera, peritoneal membranes, and gills are completely extracted, followed by chilled ozonated rinsing to halt bacterial proliferation and eliminate dead-weight waste.
The flesh displays a luminous pale-pink hue, free from intramuscular pin bones, anchored around a solitary central spine. This anatomy facilitates clean, intact cross-cut steaks that do not disintegrate during pan-searing, steaming, or charcoal broiling. Packaged whole-gutted on flaked ice within thermal shippers, it guarantees dockside ocean freshness for demanding chefs.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

In whole round fish, 12% to 15% of gross weight consists of viscera, digestive enzymes, and gills that represent paid waste. Furthermore, gut enzymes are the primary catalysts for rapid spoilage. Purchasing Khan gutted mackerel ensures 100% sanitary usable weight, halts autolytic degradation, and optimizes procurement cost per edible kilogram.

Because evisceration and gill removal are executed beforehand, subsequent dressing loss is limited strictly to head and tail fin trimmings (around 18% to 22%). The resulting culinary yield of premium bone-in round steaks reaches an impressive 78% to 82% of delivered invoice weight.

The minimum order quantity for inter-provincial wholesale dispatch is 30 kg (approx. 1 to 2 insulated EPS shippers). For bulk volumes exceeding 200 kg, deliveries are coordinated via dedicated reefer routes with tiered commercial volume pricing.

Following evisceration, the kidney blood line adhering along the central spine is mechanically scraped with stainless curettes, and the black peritoneal lining is stripped away. The cavity undergoes low-pressure rinsing with ozonated chilled water, reducing surface microbial loads by up to 99% and neutralizing fishy odors.

Bushehr Spanish Mackerel thrives in nutrient-dense shallow gulf shelves, yielding balanced Omega-3 lipid marbling, firm muscle elasticity, and succulent flaky meat. Conversely, imported oceanic stocks endure repeated thawing cycles and freezer burn, resulting in cottony, dehydrated flesh and oxidized lipid odors.

Every consignment of Khan gutted mackerel leaves with an electronic quarantine health certificate issued by the Bushehr Veterinary Directorate, complete with a traceable verification code. Formal fiscal tax invoices complete with corporate National ID and VAT breakdowns are registered automatically.

Packed into heavy-gauge EPS shippers, fish are insulated with thermal flake ice blankets and non-leak gel packs before hermetic banding. Transit to Tehran requires under 18 hours via online-monitored refrigerated trucks or under 6 hours via early morning cargo flights from Bushehr.
