It arrived perfectly frozen. You have to thaw it all at once before using it, but I use it right away. I use it in stir-fries and pork curry. It's sliced quite thinly.

Excellent cold chain transportation; it arrived still rock hard. The meat was fresh, and it was delicious stir-fried with sauerkraut.
俺是来人间历劫der
I was busy preparing the food and wanted to stir-fry it with chili peppers, but the first bite was incredibly fishy and pungent. I thought there was something wrong with my tongue, so I asked several other people to try it, and they all said it smelled bad! It tasted like something spoiled, rancid, and fishy.

The meat is a good mix of lean and fatty, though I personally prefer it a bit leaner. This cut is perfect for braising with tofu knots; the meat is very evenly distributed and neatly arranged.
