Cod

Cultural Context

Cod, particularly in its salted form, has deep roots in Spanish cuisine, especially in coastal regions where fishing was a way of life. Traditionally, it was preserved through salting, allowing it to be stored for long periods, making it a staple during Lent and other religious observances. Today, cod is celebrated in various forms across Spain, from tapas to main dishes, and has found its way into kitchens around the world, often adapted with local flavors and ingredients.
