1. Choose fresh seafood: Before freezing, make sure to choose fresh seafood. Prefer fresh, odor-free and undamaged seafood.

2. Quick freezing: Quickly freeze seafood in the shortest possible time. Place seafood in a pre-chilled freezer or freezer to ensure the temperature drops quickly to freezing temperatures.

3. Pack properly: Divide seafood into appropriate portions and pack in airtight bags or containers suitable for freezing. Make sure the packaging is tight to prevent odors.

4. Marking and recording: Indicate the type of seafood and the freezing date on the package so that it can be easily identified when it is used in the future.

5. Store frozen seafood in a constant low-temperature freezer or freezer, ideally at -18°C or lower. Maintaining a constant temperature helps prevent seafood from spoiling.

6. Avoid repeated freezing: Try to avoid repeated thawing of seafood. Once thawed, it should be consumed as soon as possible and should not be re-frozen.

7. Reasonable storage time: Different types of seafood have different shelf life in the frozen state. Generally speaking, seafood can be stored for several months to one year at a freezing temperature of -18°C. Depending on the type of seafood, consult the relevant freezer storage time guidelines, and eat it within the appropriate time.

8. Pay attention to the thawing process: When you need to use frozen seafood, you should thaw it slowly. It is best to thaw it slowly in the refrigerator to ensure the texture and taste of the seafood is not compromised.
