Cod has always been a favorite of seafood lovers. It's so versatile, mild, and economical. The newest member of the cod family is Alaskan cod which is totally boneless, skinless, and terrific prepared any number of ways.

Because it is such a firm, flaky fish, it may be grilled outdoors after brushing with butter. It also makes a wonderful base for chowder.
