Origin: Newfoundland

Taste and Cooking: Known to be meatier, denser, and oiler than the fillet, Cod Tongues are a delicacy often overlooked. This dynamic muscle gives off a mild fish flavor with a sweet finish like crab or scallops. Cod tongues, however, when compared to cheeks tend to be more fibrous. Common methods of preparation include pan frying, baking, and deep frying.
