Our salt cod loin is of the highest quality, sourced from Icelandic origin and carefully prepared by Bacalaos Ederpesca in Gipuzkoa, a family-owned salt cod specialist. This company is renowned for its expertise in the sector and supplies some of the best restaurants in Spain. The salt cod loin is particularly thick and tender, with very few small bones to pick out. It is salt-cured in the traditional Spanish way in Gipuzkoa for 21 days using pure, natural sea salt. Before using, the salt cod needs to be desalted by soaking it in water for 48 hours, changing the water four times a day. This process will help to remove excess salt from the cod. Once desalted, you can remove any remaining bones from each fillet using a pair of tweezers.

As a tradition, Bermudians make cod fish cakes for Good Friday using salt cod. After a brief , very helpful, web chat with a representative of Basco we decided the best choice for me was the salt cod loin. I ordered it on a Monday and was advised that delivery times during Covid 19 lockdown were much slower than usual. I hoped for the best and it was delivered on the Thursday, just in time! I was delighted with the quantity and quality of the fish. Very fresh and delicious! I highly recommend this British company supplying Spanish produce!
