Description
The often-overlooked appeal of trim cuts shines brightly in our cod selection. Hailing from the same oceanic waters and catch as our larger fillets, these compact servings boast the same quality, flavor, and nutrition synonymous with any of our cod offerings, but in a more petite package. Instead of being crafted into complete 6-ounce portions, these cod cuts range from 2 to 4 ounces each and are individually quick-frozen for convenient retrieval from the 10 lb box as needed.
What sets our small cuts apart is their size, proving that great things truly do come in small packages. Their versatility in the kitchen adds an extra dimension to your experience with wild Alaskan seafood. Think of them as your dependable protein source for snackable seafood moments, sudden cravings for fish, and meals that require just the right amount of extra for you and your guests.
In our dedication to sustainability and ethical practices, we strive to maximize the utilization of our catch. Since our standard portions are tailored to 6 ounces, any remaining cuts of varying weights are thoughtfully gathered to create these small servings. This approach not only allows us to share more of our delicious catch with our customers but also reduces waste typically associated with processing, aligning perfectly with our commitment to sustainability.
Beyond their eco-friendliness, the presence of small portions in your kitchen brings unexpected joy. These slender, asymmetrical cuts, known as trim pieces, cook up in a fraction of the time needed for larger cuts of cod. Their dimensions also facilitate quicker defrosting, whether in the refrigerator or a bowl of cold water. With more surface area for seasonings on one side and enhanced skin-to-pan contact on the other, these small portions offer ample room for flavor experimentation and a heightened potential for achieving a crispy, crunchy, and irresistible texture.
Tailored for light meals, appetizers, and second servings, small cod portions generally cook even faster than their full-sized fillet counterparts.
