You could also substitute haddock in fish and chips.
Is Cod A Healthy Sea Food?
Cod does not contain high amounts of omega 3 fatty acids, but it is low in mercury and can be a nutritious part of a healthy diet.
Is Shallot The Same As Onion?
Shallots and onions are in the same family, but there is a difference in the flavor.
Shallots have a sweet and mild (although pronounced) flavor, with a hint of garlic.
Onions have more of a bite than shallots.
