About Bacalao seco
Bacalao Seco, or dry salted cod, is a traditional ingredient widely used in Mediterranean, Latin American, and Caribbean cuisine. Originating from centuries-old preservation techniques, fresh cod is cured with salt and dried, allowing it to be stored for extended periods without refrigeration. This versatile protein boasts a rich, savory flavor that enhances dishes like stews, fritters, and salads. Bacalao Seco is high in protein, low in fat, and a good source of vitamins B6 and B12, as well as essential minerals such as phosphorus and selenium. However, its high sodium content from the curing process requires careful preparation, often involving soaking and rinsing to reduce its saltiness. When consumed in moderation and prepared thoughtfully, Bacalao Seco can be a nutritious addition to a balanced diet, offering both culinary versatility and health benefits rooted in its lean protein profile.
