This study identifies the effect of freezing raw material on the storage quality of salted Atlantic bonito ( Lakerda ) at refrigerated (4 ±1 ° C) and ambient (17 ±3 ° C) conditions. It also shows the effect of different salt:fish ratios on the shelf-life and biogenic amine development during storage. The products with the lowest salt content corresponded to the lowest sensory acceptance. Previously frozen raw material (FRM) had higher salt uptake compared to freshly salted fish (FSF). Water phase salt (WPS %) level usually reached to suggested seafood safety levels (20%) within the 1 st week. There were significant differences (p<0.05) amongst the samples treated with different salt ratios and stored at different temperatures. Higher salt content caused higher thiobarbituric acid value indicating acceleration of lipid oxidation. Lower biogenic amine values were observed with products produced from FRM. Overall results demonstrated the advantage of using FRM for dry salting of Atlantic bonito in terms of food quality.
