Costco has a variety of frozen seafood which is perfect for making a quick and easy dinner. The chain keeps its seafood fresh by utilizing a flash-freezing process, which many retailers use to preserve seafood and other products.

Chef and freelance food writer Lizzy Briskin relies on Costco for lots of essentials, but frozen salmon is not included in that list. She prefers the chain's fresh salmon, highlighting the potential textural issues that can arise when pre-seasoned seafood is subjected to "extended periods of freezing" and marination.

Upon cooking, you may find that the fish achieves a too-soft, soggy texture, as opposed to the delightful toothsome bite you're going for. Instead, Briskin recommends buying the reasonably priced fresh salmon from the Costco counter and seasoning it on your own.
