The Alaskan true cod, also known as Pacific cod, is sustainably harvested in the Bering Sea and the Aleutian Islands. The mild flavor and firm, flaky texture of this fish allow for diverse cooking applications but remember that this fish is very lean and has the potential to dry out, if not prepared properly. The Pacific Cod is closely related to the Atlantic cod, but it is leaner, sweeter, and slightly whiter; it is also more tender because of its higher moisture content.
