Dear Tina Huynh,

 

For safety acceptability, it is necessary to use Food Grade.

From memory, Codex recommends a maximum P2O5 content in the finished product.

Some countries have zero-tolerance for this chemical in seafood products.

Over-use can significantly change appearance of product, eg rubbery texture.

Dear Tina,

 

It depends what you mean by "quickly" Probably initially easiest to send to a lab to get an idea.
