Special Remarks:
When you are purchasing cod, be sure to ask for the fresh Alaskan cod and not the Alaskan black cod. Be prepared to pay approximately $1.00 per lb. more than you would for the regular Pacific cod because the Alaskan cod is flown in fresh. It is definitely money well spent for a great fish.
For those who are not comfortable with a few bones, ask your fishmonger to remove them.
