Salt Cod, Bacalao or Baccalà: Dried and salted codfish

Size

Premium Bacalao Salt Cod – Available in 1 lb to 5 lb Whole Cuts

Authentic Salt Cod – A Culinary Tradition for Generations

Salt cod, or bacalao, is a staple in Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese kitchens. Our premium bacalao is expertly salted and dried using traditional methods that enhance the cod’s rich, savory flavor and firm texture.

Unlike fresh cod, salt cod is a pantry essential with a deep-rooted history dating back to the Roman Empire—valued for its flavor, texture, and long shelf life.

Why Salt Cod?

Salt cod isn’t just a substitute for fresh—it’s a different ingredient altogether. Salting transforms the cod into something heartier, more flavorful, and ideal for slow-cooked recipes like Baccalà alla Livornese, Baccalà alla Napoletana, or Portuguese Bacalhau à Brás.

Product Details:

  • Available in 1 lb. 2 lb. 3 lb. 4 lb. and 5 lb. whole cuts
  • Long shelf life: 18 to 24 months without refrigeration
  • Ships expedited for maximum freshness
  • Store in a cool, dry place until ready to use

How to Prepare:

  • Rinse under cold water to remove surface salt.
  • Soak in the refrigerator, changing water every 4–6 hours.
  • After 2–3 water changes, the cod will be ready for cooking.

From Our Market to Your Kitchen
