Wild Alaskan Black Cod Portions: 5 lb box
Also known as “Sablefish,” black cod is considered a delicacy in 21-countries throughout the world and is reputed for its rich, yet mild flavor, soft-texture, and high oil content. The meat is referred to as “velvety” or “satiny,” hence its common market nickname, “Butterfish.” The flesh parts into large, white, delicate flakes that absorb marinades well. Its high flat content makes fillets good for grilling, smoking, frying, or served as sushi. Each boneless skin-on black cod portion is vacuum sealed for freshness then flash frozen.
