A superb white昀椀sh, to which chefs are coming back to with renewed enthusiasm. It has a long, tapered body with a mixture of sandy-browns, greyish-greens and darker speckles.

Whole Cod range from 500g to over 6kg with the smaller 昀椀sh (500g to 1.8kg) sometimes known as Codling. While 昀椀llets from smaller 昀椀sh are most commonly used, it’s at its best when loins or suprÍmes are cut from larger 4-6kg 昀椀sh, giving a meatier portion with large, succulent 昀氀akes of pure white Cod.

As for cooking, its very versatile and takes most 昀氀avours, but requires care as it is easily over-cooked.
