Cod mince cutlets are tender and very healthy. Soft, almost boneless white cod meat is perfect for preparing a variety of dishes, and the minimal amount of fat places this product in the category of dietary recipes. When buying cod, carefully examine its appearance. The color of the fish should be uniform. High-quality fillet has a transparent glaze that shines on the cut and is present in a thin layer on the entire surface of the product.
