Cod roe refers to the ripe egg masses harvested from female codfish, often enjoyed in various cuisines worldwide, particularly Nordic, Japanese, and Mediterranean. It is rich in protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential vitamins like B12 and D, making it a nutritious seafood option for supporting heart health, brain function, and strong bones. Cod roe is low in carbohydrates but can be high in sodium, especially when processed into spreads or cured for flavor. Its distinctive briny taste makes it a popular ingredient in dishes like taramasalata, sushi, or simply served salted and smoked. While cod roe can be a healthy addition to a balanced diet, moderation is key due to its cholesterol content and potential sodium levels. Always check preparation methods to ensure the healthiest choice.
