Guides/Sushi and sashimi HACCP considerations

Sushi and sashimi HACCP considerations

Raw-consumption fish requires documented parasite control — often freeze destruction — plus strict cold-chain and supplier controls. Build a plan that shows how your facility meets those expectations.

Parasite destruction

FDA guidance describes freezing regimens that destroy parasites in fish intended to be eaten raw. Your plan should state which products require it and how you verify freeze cycles.

Supplier and receiving controls

Know which lots were previously frozen for parasite destruction versus which you freeze in-house. Receiving records support that story.
