Caution
May cause symptoms in more sensitive people. Track your own reaction.
Fresh fish such as cod, zander, trout or carp have an acceptable histamine content if they are really fresh. Histamine content increases rapidly – fish must be processed as soon as possible after catch and not frozen and thawed repeatedly.
High-protein decay risk: For rapidly perishable high-protein foods, storage and repeated reheating can increase histamine load, and reheating does not destroy the histamine formed.
