What is HPP Processing?
HPP units have a high-pressure operating vessel/cylinder which is filled with highly purified natural water and pressurized to internal chamber pressures of up to 87,000 PSI (pounds per square inch).
When lobsters are placed into the HPP chamber for a normal operating cycle, the pressure almost instantly dispatches the lobster. The process compresses the meat within the lobster shell breaking the bond of the connective tissue and meat to the external shell.
The resulting raw lobster meat has no heat used to separate the meat from the shell and no additives to adulterate the finished product flavors. An added benefit of our HPP technology is that the lobster is tenderized during processing, leaving the meat tender and flavorful as well.
Raw shucked lobster meats are then cryogenically frozen at -80C to -90C which flash freezes the meat for optimum “sushi grade” quality and quickly vacuum packed for maximum freshness.
The end user/chef can then defrost and cook the HPP lobster meat to their preferred texture and flavor. HPP lobster is the preferred choice of top chefs around the world and the pinnacle of frozen lobster cuisine.
HPP Processing is also one of only two methods currently approved by the WWF (World Wildlife Fund) and PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) to process a lobster.
What is MSC Certified Sustainable Seafood?
The MSC says its label guarantees that the wild seafood was caught using methods that do not deplete the natural supply. It also guarantees that fishing companies do not cause serious harm to other life in the sea, from coral to dolphins. The idea is spreading fast throughout the food industry. Nicola’s Marketplace lobster is MSC certified!
What does Sushi Grade mean?
Although there is no official standard for using the label “sushi grade”, this generally means that it is the highest quality fish that a seller is offering and one they feel confident can be eaten raw. The best fish is often assigned a Grade 1, which is usually what will be sold as sushi grade. Nicola’s Marketplace Lobster is a premium lobster brand offering only the highest quality lobster on earth, hence the “sushi grade” label.
