The process flow chart depicts various steps involved in the production of frozen fish pies.
Overall, the process can be broken down into three stages: the preparation of potatoes as well as the salmon and delivery. Additionally, the first stage is the most intensive, with about six steps.
In detail, potatoes are delivered to the production facility up to one month in advance. First, potatoes are cleaned and then peeled. After that, potatoes are sliced into chips which are boiled and seasoned with pepper to make them spicy. Finally, they are kept in storage, waiting for the preparation of the salmon.
The fresh salmon are often transported to the manufacturing site about 12 hours in advance. They are then washed with lemon juice and salt so that the fishy odour will disappear. Next, they are put into a steam oven before having their bones removed. Following this step is the inspection of the quality of the salmon.
Now that the salmon and potatoes are ready, prepared peas and sauce are added to make pies. They are then wrapped, frozen, and finally delivered to specialty fish stores.
