Sable fish (nothing to do with cod) is not something one freezes, it's
cold smoked, the real deal a delicasy to die for:

Today at $42/lb... 65 years ago when I went slumming I pigged out on
79¢/lb smoked sable on butter slathered bialys the size of Caddy
hubcaps... but it was sliced fresh to order from a whole fish at a
Brooklyn Appy... that it's sold by 6 lbs tells me it's NatGeo brand
mystery marine life in a plastic pouch like what today they call lox
but in fact is salty pink slime with artificial smoke flavoring and
real never washed extra virgin fermented vaginal discharge.
