Is it okay to eat the fish the next day after frying it

After frying the hairtail, it can be eaten the next day, but it needs to be refrigerated and thoroughly heated. The safety of consuming overnight hairtail mainly depends on storage conditions and heating methods. Improper storage may breed bacteria or produce histamine.

Fried hairtail is prone to bacterial growth when left at room temperature for more than two hours. It is recommended to refrigerate it in a timely manner. The refrigeration temperature should be kept below 4 degrees Celsius and sealed with plastic wrap or placed in a sealed container to avoid mixing with other foods. Refrigerated hairtail should be consumed within 24 hours. Before consumption, it should be heated in a microwave or pan to a center temperature exceeding 70 degrees Celsius to ensure the killing of potential pathogenic bacteria. If the hairtail is stored at room temperature for more than 4 hours or shows signs of spoilage such as odor or mucus, it is not recommended for consumption. Some people are sensitive to histamine and may experience allergic reactions when consuming fish that have been stored for a long time. After refrigeration, the taste of hairtail will become dry and hard. You can add a small amount of water to stew or steam it to restore its moisture.

It is recommended to try making and eating hairtail fresh to preserve the best flavor and nutrition. If storage is required, the raw hairtail can be washed and dried before freezing, and thawed before cooking. Pay attention to storing seafood in daily diet for no more than 24 hours and heating it repeatedly no more than once. Eating fresh vegetables and fruits together can help promote protein absorption, and those with weak gastrointestinal function should control their single consumption.
