Salted cod is a traditional preserved seafood product made from cod that has been heavily salted to extend its shelf life and enhance its flavor. The bone-in version contains the fish’s natural bones, which contribute additional flavor during cooking and are commonly preferred in many traditional recipes.
Salted codfish is widely used in African, Caribbean, Portuguese, Latin American, and European cuisines. It is prized for its firm texture, rich seafood taste, and ability to absorb the flavors of soups, stews, sauces, and vegetable dishes.
