Brakes has launched two new fish products – initially to tie in with this month’s Fish Week promotion but also with the Christmas trade.

Tuna carpaccio comes frozen in 10 x 80g portions per pack.

A spokesman for the foodservice specialist said carpaccio (or ceviche) dishes are growing in popularity in the out-of-home sector (pubs, hotels, restaurants and contract catering) following similar trends in North America.

The new Scotch whisky cured cold smoked salmon portion is available boneless, but with the skin still on for a ‘just caught’ appearance on the plate.

The 140-170g pieces are individually frozen, 10 to a pack.
