The storage temperature for frozen fish is—

Correct option is A

Option (a): Correct
• FSSAI recommends storing frozen fish at –18°C or below to maintain safety, texture, and prevent microbial activity.
• This temperature keeps fish stable during long-term frozen storage and prevents rancidity and drip loss.
Option (b): Incorrect — –5°C is not cold enough; spoilage continues.
Option (c): Incorrect — 0°C is for chilled fish, not frozen fish.
Option (d): Incorrect — 5°C is unsafe; microbial growth occurs rapidly.
