OFFICIAL COOKED FISH YIELDS FOR SEAFOOD<br />

The following list has been developed for both standardized and non-standardized products to make all users of USDC inspected fishery products aware of the<br />

official cooked yield factors approved to date for use when establishing the meat/meat alternate yields for USDA/FNS approved Child Nutrition statements.<br />

These factors, developed using standard AOAC* cooking procedures, can be used to determine seafood yield (converting the raw edible seafood weight to<br />

cooked seafood weight by multiplying the weight of raw seafood in the product by its yield factor).<br />

COOKED YIELD FACTORS FOR SEAFOODS BASED UPON STANDARD<br />

AOAC COOKING PROCEDURES<br />

(1) Products cut from regular frozen fish blocks<br />

(2) Fresh or frozen fish fillets, skin-on or skinless<br />

(3) Products made from frozen minced fish blocks<br />

(4) Products made from fresh or frozen minced clams<br />

(5) Products made from fresh or frozen minced shrimp<br />

(6) Rehydrated dry salted cod (before cooking)<br />
