A portable instrument was developed to rapidly and objectively determine texture (firmness and resilience) of raw Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) fillets. A controlled study determined the texture of raw fillets from 774 cod, caught at three different times of year. Compared to texture grades of fillets assessed by trained and experienced Fish Inspection Officers, this instrument was a dependable method of rapidly determined texture of raw fillets.
