Cod FAQs
How Fresh is Your Frozen Cod?
Our cod is frozen at sea within hours of being caught, using advanced freezing technology that rapidly brings the temperature down to -21°C. This immediate freezing process locks in the cod’s natural flavors, texture, and nutritional benefits better than traditional methods. Many customers are surprised to learn that frozen-at-sea cod is actually fresher than “fresh” cod found at fish counters, which can be several days old by the time it reaches the display. Our process ensures you’re getting cod at its peak quality, ready to cook whenever you need it.
What Portions Do Your Cod Products Come In?
All our cod products use Individual Quick Freezing (IQF) technology, meaning each portion is separately frozen for your convenience. Our range includes premium 1kg packs of cod loins and fillets, with each piece individually portioned for easy meal planning. This means you can defrost exactly what you need – whether you’re cooking for one or feeding the whole family. The individual portions are vacuum-sealed where appropriate, maintaining optimal freshness and preventing freezer burn. This method also allows you to easily see the quality of each piece before cooking.
Can I Cook Your Cod From Frozen?
Yes! For maximum convenience, most of our cod products are specially prepared to be cooked straight from frozen, saving you valuable time in the kitchen. Each product comes with detailed cooking instructions for multiple methods – whether you prefer baking, grilling, or pan-frying. Cooking from frozen actually helps retain the cod’s moisture, resulting in perfectly flaky, tender fish every time. This method is particularly convenient for busy households, as there’s no need to plan ahead for defrosting, and you can have a healthy, delicious meal ready in minutes.
How Long Will the Cod Stay Fresh in My Freezer?
When stored properly at -18°C or below, our cod maintains its premium quality for up to 12 months from the date of freezing. This extended shelf life is possible because of our rapid freezing process, which creates minimal ice crystals and preserves the cod’s natural texture and flavor. To help maintain quality, we recommend keeping the cod in its original packaging and placing it in the coldest part of your freezer. You’ll find the best-before date clearly marked on each package, though many customers report excellent quality even approaching this date due to our superior freezing methods.
Is Your Cod Sustainably Sourced?
Yes, sustainability is at the heart of our sourcing practices. We strictly follow the Marine Conservation Society’s Good Fish Guide to ensure all our cod comes from responsible fisheries. Every piece of cod we sell is fully traceable from catch to kitchen, and we work exclusively with fishing partners who share our commitment to ocean conservation. Our buying team regularly reviews our suppliers’ practices and certificates to maintain these high standards. We believe that sustainable fishing isn’t just better for the environment – it results in superior quality cod for our customers while ensuring this beloved fish remains available for future generations.
