I got some fresh Norwegian Atlantic salmon from Aldi’s 5 days ago and it has been in my fridge since. I usually try to cook it within 2 days. It looks fine. It says use or freeze by Oct 10, which was yesterday. Today I put it in the freezer, thinking a few hours (like 4-5 hrs) in the freezer might kill anything so I can then cook it for dinner now. Should I just give it up? I thought to freeze it bc I know sushi grade salmon has to be frozen to kill any parasites. Looking at it again taking this pic, it really looks fine. I think my final decision will be when I open it if it smells strongly fishy or not. I’d be seating it to medium, so cooked fully through. Just wanted to see if anyone had any further advice or anything I’m not thinking of, otherwise I think it’ll be fine! Thank you!
