Our Salt Cod Loin, weighing 400g, is an extra quality product from Icelandic origin. It is carefully prepared by Bacalaos Alkorta in Gipuzkoa, a renowned family-owned salt cod specialist with over 400 days of experience. This cod loin is known for its thick and tender meat with few small bones. The cod is traditionally salt-cured in Gipuzkoa for 21 days using pure, natural sea salt. Keep refrigerated after opening and use within 3 months. The product has a 1-year shelf life from the date of manufacture.

The salt cod loin arrived half frozen, half soft to touch. However, it looked OK, so we kept it in the fridge for about 6 days. We then rinsed it several times with water in preparation for use. However, by then it had a really foul (not just fishy) smell, so we threw it out. The 3 packs of croquetas also arrived 'squidgy' to touch. We put these in our home freezer and noted next day that they were by then rock solid to touch. We have since esten the squid croquetas. Our order arrived in a cardboard box with ice packs but minimal insulation and - strangely - the ice packs were frozen rock solid. Also strangely, the coldest food and drinks items to touch were the 2 bottles of wine which were lying at the top of the box. Overall, we were extremely disappointed, as you can imagine.

The Salt cod was delicious packaged well and delivery was fast. I made salt fish buljol which is a Trinidadian dish. Will be ordering again.
