About Atlantic cod

Atlantic cod is a marine fish with lean, white flesh that separates into large, tender flakes when cooked. Its raw flesh is pale and relatively firm, with a mild flavour. It is sold whole or in portions, including fillets and steaks, and is widely available fresh, frozen, salted or dried.

The fish is prepared by baking, frying, poaching, steaming and other cooking methods. The exact ingredient matters: fresh fillet, salted cod and dried cod are distinct forms with different texture and preparation requirements. Skin, bones and edible organs may be included in some whole-fish products but not in a boneless fillet.
