Title: SV Pacific Cod
Post by: zueth on March 15, 2018, 12:32:51 PM
I have purchased some cod a while ago and what we didn't cook up fresh I seasoned, then vaccum sealed with a pat of butter and froze it for later.  I took one of those out and cooked in SV at 132 for 40 minutes, once done I plated and drizzled a little bit of juices from bag and lemon juice on fish.  The fist turned out great and really is a great way to cook fish like this because it is so easy to over cook and get dry.  Made a quick arugula salad to go with it, arugula, candied walnuts, goat cheese, blueberries and homemade honey lime dressing.

Looks great!!

I recently have  done a few SV fish cooks,  Halibut once and  Mahi Mahi  twice.   All have come out perfectly

Defiantly has up'ed my fish game!!   

I can never seem to get it right, on the grill or  oven or when I try to saute, always seem to  overcook it a bit

Have some cod filets in my freezer and looking for some recipes to try.

did you defrost prior to SV? or place directly into SV frozen? I have not done fish yet -----SOON!

PS - Looks great!

defrost first, probably would need to cook an additional 30 minutes if you put in frozen.

It is really good pan fried in cast iron too, I use a termapen to constantly check temp to make sure it doesn't get overcooked, but I like it better in SV, only thing missing is the sear you get from CI.  Might have to hit for 45 minutes a side in CI next time after I pull from SV.
