About Portuguese whitefish
Portuguese Whitefish, also known as Bacalhau in Portuguese cuisine, is a flavorful and versatile fish commonly prepared as salted, dried cod. Known for its lean protein, it is rich in essential nutrients such as omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D, and B vitamins, supporting heart health, brain function, and energy metabolism. Originating from Portugal, Whitefish is a staple in traditional dishes like Bacalhau à Brás or Bacalhau com Natas, celebrated for its mild and slightly savory taste that pairs well with herbs, olive oil, and vegetables. Low in saturated fat, it provides a health-conscious source of protein while being relatively low in calories. However, its salt-preserved form can be high in sodium, so soaking or rinsing is recommended to reduce intake. Whether grilled, baked, or simmered, Portuguese Whitefish offers a nutritious and delicious ingredient for a balanced diet.
