Premium Wild-Caught Icelandic Cod Loin

Icelandic Cod stands out as a pinnacle of quality and flavor in the world of seafood. Harvested from the pristine Arctic waters surrounding Iceland, this fish embodies the essence of purity and excellence. Renowned for its firm yet tender texture and delicate, mild flavor, Icelandic Cod is a culinary delight cherished by chefs and seafood enthusiasts alike. Its snow-white flesh cooks up beautifully, whether grilled to perfection, baked with aromatic herbs and spices, or simply pan-seared for a quick and satisfying meal.

What Makes This Product So Special?

One of the distinguishing features of Icelandic Cod is its sustainability. Iceland has a long-standing tradition of responsible fishing practices, ensuring that its cod fisheries remain abundant for generations to come. Strict quotas and regulations are in place to safeguard the fish population and preserve the delicate marine ecosystem. As a result, Icelandic Cod is not only a delectable choice for the plate but also a conscientious one, aligning with the values of environmentally conscious consumers.

The Health Benefits of Cod

Seafood is widely regarded by medical experts and dieticians to be healthy, providing nutritional benefits not found in other meat sources. While salmon is often widely publicized for its health benefits, in general, most fish species are also low in calories and fat, but high in protein, vitamins, and minerals.

Icelandic Cod contains 15 grams of protein in every 3 oz. with only 70 calories and just .5 grams of fat. Cod, like many fish, also contains omega-3 fatty acids to help lower cholesterol, control high blood pressure, and reduce the risk of heart disease. Icelandic Cod is also an excellent source of vitamins B3 and B12, the antioxidant selenium, and iodine, which assists in thyroid hormone regulation to better control metabolism and cognitive function.

Simple Instructions for Storing and Thawing Icelandic Cod

Storage: Keep frozen ≤ 0℉ (-18° C). Vacuum-sealed fish held under these conditions should retain their quality for at least 6 to 12 months. Lean white fish (halibut, cod) generally have a longer freezer life than fatty fish (salmon, tuna, sablefish). It is important to note seafood stored in frost-free freezers should be used within 3 months.

Thawing instructions: Thaw under refrigeration ≤ 38℉ (3℃). Before thawing, puncture or remove packaging. For quick-thawing, place frozen fish in cool water for approximately 20 to 30 minutes, just until the contents are flexible. Once thawed, immediately cook or refrigerate (if refrigerating, puncture the package). Regardless of the chosen thawing technique, once the product is thawed, it should be cooked within 24 hours and stored at a temperature no higher than 38℉ (3℃).
