Fish collagen jelly is a highly sought-after health and beauty product, but one of the biggest challenges in its production is ensuring that it is completely free from any fishy smell. At Chanos Fisher, we’ve perfected the art of creating collagen jelly that is both nutritious and pleasant to consume, thanks to our meticulous cleaning process for fish scales—a process that is as natural as it is effective.
The Importance of Proper Cleaning
The fishy smell often associated with seafood-based products comes from impurities, oils, and remnants on the raw materials, particularly the fish scales. These impurities not only affect the odor but can also compromise the quality of the final product. To address this, we’ve developed a rigorous cleaning process that prioritizes cleanliness, sustainability, and food safety, all without the use of industrial cleaning agents.
The Key Ingredient: Vinegar
Instead of relying on harsh industrial chemicals, we use household vinegar as our primary cleaning agent. Vinegar is a safe, food-grade ingredient known for its ability to neutralize odors and break down unwanted organic compounds without leaving any harmful residues. This approach aligns with our commitment to providing a product that is not only odor-free but also completely natural and safe for consumption.
The Cleaning Process
- Soaking the Scales:
The fish scales are first soaked in a vinegar solution for an entire day. This soaking process softens the scales and helps to loosen impurities, oils, and any residual substances that might cause an unpleasant smell. - Hand Rubbing for Precision:
After soaking, the scales are carefully rubbed by hand to remove all impurities. This step is repeated multiple times to ensure that even the smallest particles are thoroughly eliminated. The manual approach allows us to inspect each batch for quality, ensuring only the cleanest scales move forward in the process. - Repetition for Perfection:
The process of soaking and hand-rubbing is repeated several times until the fish scales are completely clean, soft, and white. This ensures that no traces of impurities or fishy odors remain. The labor-intensive nature of this process is a testament to our commitment to quality.
The Result: Pure, Odorless Collagen
By the time the fish scales are ready for processing, they are odorless, clean, and free from any impurities. This rigorous cleaning ensures that the collagen extracted from the scales retains its natural purity and is entirely free from any fishy smell. The final jelly product is smooth, refreshing, and packed with health benefits—perfect for consumption without any concern about unpleasant odors.
