The aim of this work was to study the microstructure of vacuum-packed salmon fillets superchilled in an impingement freezer at −30 °C (air temperature) and 227 W/m2 K (surface heat transfer coefficient, SHTC) for 2.1 min prior to storage at a superchilling storage temperature of −1.7 ± 0.3 °C for 28 days. The microstructure of vacuum-packed salmon fillets were analysed at the surface, mid-centre and centre layers. Significant differences were observed between the ice crystals formed at the surface, mid-centre and centre layers. The size of ice crystals at the centre of the superchilled fillets was 3 times larger than those at the surface layer. Significant differences were observed between the size of ice crystals formed during the superchilling process and following storage. The results further indicated that, after temperature equalisation (1 day of storage) the growth of the intracellular ice crystal was not significant at (P < 0.05) at any storage time.
► The ice crystal size of superchilled vacuum-packed salmon was described.
► Differences in the size of ice crystals in superchilled salmon were observed.
► The ice crystals at the surface layer were smaller than the ice crystals at the centre layer.
