About Codfish cream

Codfish Cream is a rich and savory spread made primarily from salted cod, olive oil, garlic, and cream, often blended to a smooth consistency. Originating in Mediterranean and coastal cuisines, it is particularly popular in countries like Portugal and Italy, appearing in dishes such as "bacalhau cremoso" or as a topping for bread and crackers. Codfish is high in protein and omega-3 fatty acids, supporting heart health and brain function. However, the inclusion of cream and oil increases its calorie and fat content, making it a less ideal choice for low-fat diets. The high sodium content from salted cod may also be a concern for those monitoring blood pressure. Despite these factors, Codfish Cream remains a flavorful option when enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet, highlighting the culinary heritage of its regions.
