Cod fillets are portions of the fish known as cod, generally shredded and cleaned of bones, ideal for preparing a wide variety of traditional and contemporary recipes. Cod is a white fish, with firm flesh and a mild flavor, highly valued in gastronomy for its versatility and its ability to absorb flavors.
This fish originates from the cold waters of the North Atlantic, especially in regions like Iceland, Norway, and Canada. Traditionally, cod is preserved in salt to extend its shelf life, although it can also be found fresh or frozen in fillets.
Regarding its properties, cod is low in fat and calories, and an excellent source of lean protein, B-complex vitamins (such as B12), and essential minerals like phosphorus, potassium, and natural sodium. It is a healthy and nutritious option to include in your diet.
In different Hispanic American countries, cod fillets may also be known as tajadas de bacalao, lomitos de bacalao, or simply desalted cod when referring to its preparation before cooking.
