Hard

A mild, white-fleshed fish with a delicate, flaky texture. Cod is the classic fish for fish and chips and is popular in Portuguese, Scandinavian, and British cuisines.
Bake, pan-fry, or poach cod fillets gently — it breaks apart easily. Salt cod (bacalhau) must be soaked for 24-48 hours before cooking. Pair with lemon, capers, herbs, and buttery sauces.
