FISH ONLY fish with fins and scales are kosher. Fresh fish must be recognisable as being of a kosher species. Jewish law therefore forbids the use of fillets which do not have the scaled skin attached and are not recognisable as being from a kosher species unless a Rabbinic supervisor is present or the customer supervises the filleting of such fish. The supervisor should ensure that the knives and boards used are thoroughly clean before cutting commences. Should there be any doubt as to whether the fillets or cutlets have been cut with a clean knife, then the fish must be thoroughly washed in cold water before use. It is forbidden to purchase minced fish which has not been minced under the supervision of a Rabbinic supervisor. TINNED TUNA The list of tinned Tuna below is endorsed by The Kashrut Authority either as a result of its own investigations or the investigations of other reliable Kashrut authorities. Some Halachic authorities do not permit the use of finely cut tinned fish which has no skin and is not recognisable as a Kosher species unless packed under continuous Rabbinic supervision. The Authority will, however, list those tinned fish endorsed even according to the more lenient opinion. Note OU certified tuna, unless specifically mentioned on the label, relies on the more lenient opinion. OK certified tuna always has continuous supervision. KA certified tuna and fish products always have continuous supervision. Consult your Rabbi for advice. It is Kashrut Authority policy that licencees use only supervised canned tuna.
