D-15
D-15 is Charong's collection of limited-quantity Jeju products offered in fixed amounts, one drop at a time. These are items such as seafood that arrives only in the amount caught that day, or products waiting to be produced again, so they are not always on sale; each product shows its available quantity and deadline. They are packed in traditional bamboo trays called Charong, just like our regular products.
What is included in the Hairtail · Okdom · Mackerel Set?
It contains 1 large hairtail (Korea - Jeju), 1 medium okdom (Jeju horsehead tilefish, Korea - Jeju) and 1 mackerel fillet (Korea - Jeju). The set's Korean name is formed from the first syllables of the Korean words for hairtail, okdom and mackerel.
How large and heavy are the fish?
The hairtail weighs approx. 300–350g after processing (4 pieces, approx. 14cm long), the okdom approx. 190–245g after cleaning, and one mackerel fillet approx. 180–240g. Together, the three weigh approx. 670–835g. As these are wild-caught fish, there may be some variation from fish to fish.
Are the fish already cleaned?
Yes. The hairtail has the head, tail and innards removed and is cut into 4 pieces; the okdom is fully cleaned with the innards, head, tail and backbone removed; and the mackerel fillet has only the backbone removed, so small bones may remain. You can grill or braise them right after thawing.
Are the fish salted?
The hairtail is unsalted, so please season it while cooking. The okdom is lightly seasoned with Korean sea salt during processing.
How should I store and thaw it?
Store it in the freezer (−18℃ or below) as soon as it arrives. The day before you plan to eat it, move it to the refrigerator to thaw slowly; if you are in a hurry, thaw it in cold water without opening the packaging. Do not refreeze fish once it has been thawed.
Is it okay if the ice packs have melted when it arrives?
Because the product is shipped frozen, the quality is not affected even if the ice packs have melted, as long as the fish is still frozen solid. If the fish has thawed and become soft, please take photos and submit a report in My Page on the day of arrival.
