I bought a bag at walmart that looks like this one. The defrosted fish was mushy when I pan fried it. Steaming turned out pretty good.
I just read the directions---Each piece is in it's own little vacuum bag. I was supposed to defrost it out side of the bag.
That particular salmon is just "so so". I buy it and use it for myself with a salad when I am trying to lose weight. I would not serve it to company. However, I have had frozen salmon from Publix which was excellent.

We had (unfortunately no longer with us) a friend who was in the fish business. He told us to always buy frozen on the boat rather than fresh, because frozen on the boat is prepared and frozen right there, whereas fresh had been kept on the boat until they reached the fishery plant and had then been stored until it got into the stores.

I've had some really nasty fresh cod from Fresh Market, seems to always get a nasty color; and I've had some really great fresh cod .................. it's a toss up. Nothing like eating right off the boat where the fish is caught.
