Methods are also described for the preparation of diversified convenience products from the quality-upgraded tuna mas, viz., mas fingers, mas granules and mas soup powder and ready-to-serve items like mas chutney powder and mas pickles. Mackerel tuna (Euthynnus afinis), abundantly available on the Kerala coast, was used for the studies. Brining, smoking and drying of the fish were carried out at controlled conditions.
