Pacific cod that is sustainable, traceable, and caught and cared for with respect. This cod is pot-caught in the Bering Sea by an independent fisherman who is deeply rooted in the Aleutian Islands community. He is the only dayboat fisherman delivering into Dutch Harbor, AK. As soon as the fish comes aboard, it is bled and chilled in freezing cold seawater. This practice prevents the flesh from browning and results in firm, snow white colored fillets. It is then processed locally within 36 hours of capture. Pacific cod caught in Alaska with pots is rated a Best Choice by Seafood Watch. The management of the cod fishery in Alaska is highly effective. The stock is considered healthy, measures to reduce seafloor impacts and bycatch rates are in place, and policies are being developed to protect the ecosystem. This is not like other cod, and we know you will taste the difference.
