Best Answer

Unless you have a precise temperature history of the thawed swordfish, refreezing it would not be recommended. The vacuum packaging could promote the growth of C. boutlinum along with the formation of the toxin if it got above 38 degrees F. Swordfish can also produce histamines when temperature-abused which could result in Scombroid poisoning.

Can you refreeze raw vacuum packed meat?

It depends somewhat on the meat. However, most red meats and pork can be re-frozen with this caveat: the meat must have been thawed in the refrigerator. If it was quick thawed in water or the microwave, it should not be refrozen. It depends on how completely it was defrosted. If it still had ice crystals it was not thawed completely. If all of it got over 32 Deg F do not refreeze.


Can you refreeze vacuum-sealed sausage if it has not been opened?

You should not refreeze any food. Vacuum-sealing only slows the deterioration of that food; it does not kill any bacteria that might be on it so the sausage needs to be eaten within 24 hours of defrosting, unless package instructions say differently, or discarded.
