Salted Cod Loin

Salted Cod Loin is a traditional preserved fish product (widely known as bacalhau or bacalao) made by salting and drying cod loins; it features prominently in Portuguese, Spanish and many Atlantic coastal cuisines and is often rehydrated before cooking. Per 100 g it is a very concentrated source of protein, providing about 62g of protein. While it supplies beneficial nutrients commonly found in fish — including vitamin B12 and selenium — be aware that preserved salted cod is extremely high in sodium and iodine due to the curing process, so portions and rehydration methods are important when using it in recipes.
