Why the Ikejime method is so important
It’s a quick and humane way to dispatch the fish with as little stress as possible. This is vital when it comes to providing a unique product as well as extended freshness.
The fish is cut, within a few seconds, severing the nerve connecting spinal cord and the to the brain, in order to stop the “survival signal”. The bleeding process is carried out immediately in iced water and the fish is then ready for packing within a few hours.
