About Fish cod

Cod is a mild-flavored, flaky white fish popular in cuisines across the globe, from British fish and chips to New England chowder. Originating in cold ocean waters, cod is prized for its versatility and ability to absorb flavors in a variety of recipes. Nutritionally, cod is an excellent source of lean protein, providing essential amino acids while being low in fat. It’s rich in vitamin B12, niacin, and phosphorus, which support energy metabolism and bone health. Additionally, cod contains omega-3 fatty acids, which can contribute to heart and brain health. While fresh cod is highly nutritious, preparation methods like deep-frying can add unhealthy fats and calories, which should be consumed in moderation. Opting for steamed, baked, or grilled versions keeps the health benefits intact while showcasing the fish's natural taste and texture. A staple in diets from Mediterranean to Scandinavian regions, cod is both a nutritious and crowd-pleasing choice.
