This is a great question! Regarding sushi and all raw seafood dishes, we're unable to recommend eating any fish raw; we are required to inform you that consuming raw or undercooked seafood and shellfish may increase your risk of foodborne illness.

With that said, the FDA does have guidelines we can provide – and you may find them helpful when making your own decisions about your preferred food temperature: “It's always best to cook seafood thoroughly to minimize the risk of foodborne illness. However, if you choose to eat raw fish anyway, one rule of thumb is to eat fish that has been previously frozen. Some species of fish can contain parasites, and freezing will kill any parasites that may be present. However, be aware that freezing doesn't kill all harmful germs. That's why the safest route is to cook your seafood.”

We still can't recommend eating our fish raw, but if you choose to consume raw seafood, then you've found the right fish with which to do it. We use modern flash-freezing practices as outlined in the quote from the FDA. But, following our thawing method and the FDA guidelines becomes even more important if you choose to eat our fish raw - Here is the link to our article for the safest way to thaw your seafood.
