Unlike whole fresh crab, these shaped surimi balls need consistent temperature control because their texture depends on the processed fish mixture remaining properly chilled. Fresh Fish Dubai keeps the product continuously refrigerated between 0 and 4°C during storage and delivery.
The balls should remain chilled after delivery and should not be left at room temperature during preparation.
Fresh Fish Dubai has served customers since 2020, with ordering available 24/7 through phone, WhatsApp and the online shop.

Consistent ball format: You receive ready shaped pieces rather than irregular crab meat, making portioning easy for hot pots, soups and seafood boils.
Temperature controlled delivery: The product stays refrigerated at 0 to 4°C, which helps protect its springy surimi texture during UAE delivery.
Useful pack choices: Choose 500g for smaller meals or 1kg for family cooking and seafood gatherings, with approximately 40 to 50 pieces per kg.
Add the balls to simmering water or hot pot broth for 5 to 7 minutes, until heated through.
Thaw briefly, then fry at around 180°C for 3 to 5 minutes until the outside becomes lightly crisp.
Add them during the final 5 to 8 minutes of cooking so they heat through without becoming overly soft.
