Basking in the sunset's gentle glow, cod fish and salmon swim in harmony in the cold, crystal-clear waters of Torsken Senja, Tromsø, Norway. This European scene is a stark contrast to the bustling fish markets of Brazil, where cod is transformed into beloved local snacks like bolinhos de bacalhau or pasteis de bacalhau. The Atlantic cod, scientifically known as Gadus morhua, is a highly valued species, with its meat used for cod fish meal and other culinary delights. In Newfoundland, the cod's image has been immortalized through engravings, such as Donovan's plate LXIV from Ichthyologie, and continues to be a source of inspiration for artists and fishermen alike. From the icy waters of the North Atlantic to the vibrant markets of South America, the cod fish (Gadus morhua, Merlangius merlangus, Merlango comune) remains a cherished and vital part of our global food culture.
