About Torsk

Torsk, also known as Atlantic cod, is a mild, flaky white fish commonly found in Scandinavian cuisine. Rich in lean protein, it serves as an excellent source of essential amino acids and omega-3 fatty acids, which are beneficial for heart and brain health. Low in fat and calories, torsk provides key nutrients, including vitamin B12, vitamin D, and selenium, supporting energy production, bone health, and immune function. It is often prepared boiled, baked, or steamed, highlighting its subtle flavor and tender texture. Though naturally healthy, preparation methods can impact its nutritional value; recipes with heavy creams or fried coatings may increase calorie and fat content. Sustainability is also a concern with cod, as overfishing in some regions has affected populations. Opting for responsibly-sourced torsk ensures both environmental and nutritional benefits. A staple of balanced diets in Nordic countries, torsk combines versatility and nourishment in every bite.
