Cod is a popular fish seafood with a mild flavor, low fat content and a dense, flaky white flesh. Cod livers are processed to make cod liver oil, an important source of Vitamin A, Vitamin D, Vitamin E and omega-3 fatty acids. Cod have a mild flavor, so they take well to rich sauces and strong flavors and tastes. When cooked, their texture is moderately firm with large, moist flakes and delicate, sweet flavor. They may be purchased whole with head on or off, as skinless or skin-on fillets, as center-bone steaks, or they may be salted. Much cod is processed and made into frozen foods such as fish sticks.
