Black cod fillet

Tender and juicy, with a perfect fat content, the melt-in-your-mouth white meat of black cod belongs to the category of delicacies due to its refined taste and unique biochemical composition. At IKRiNKA you can always purchase fresh chilled black cod filet, one of the rarest fish species caught by fishermen.

A unique cod, but not really cod

Living in the cold depths of the Pacific Ocean and covered in black scales, this rare fish only bears a superficial resemblance to cod. A member of the Anoplopomatidae family, it is so rarely caught that it has earned numerous unrelated names: sablefish, Pindara, butterfish, black cod, and Anoplopoma, to name just a few.

Life in the deep has made black cod a master of camouflage—its soft black scales easily change color depending on the environment, displaying hues of blue or blueberry-gray. Yet under the dark, iridescent scales, its flesh always remains pure white.

Exquisite gastronomic qualities

Black cod filet belongs to the category of premium delicacies, but its high price is fully justified by its incomparable taste. Juicy and fatty, slightly flaky, with a soft velvety texture, the filet literally melts on the tongue. Its buttery flavor, with lite sweet notes in a long, tender aftertaste, and its rich ocean aroma will win the hearts of even the most discerning gourmets.
