What is the proper way to store fish?
Chef's answer
Finfish should be stored in the refrigerator and used within 1 to 2 days after purchase. It's a good idea to store it on ice in the refrigerator to keep it as cold as possible. If the fish won't be used within 2 days, wrap it tightly in moisture-proof bags (so the fish won't dry out) and store it in the freezer..
