Meat and Fish Freezing Guidelines From Historical Text
The passage advises chilling and hanging meat above freezing for at least 48 hours to season. Large pheasants should be packaged whole for freezing. For fish, handle promptly, avoid warming after catching, chill quickly if freezing is delayed, and wrap in moisture vapor proof paper to prevent drying and flavor transfer during freezer storage.
