Everyone knows that cod roes are well-loved and often eaten in a variety of ways, but did you know they can also be used to make taramasalata?
This delicious dish is made up of smoked fish eggs (usually from the COD) ground with breadcrumbs.
It has earned its place in many Mediterranean countries including Greece, Turkey, Cyprus and Lebanon- just to name a few!
The richness of these eggs will not be belied by their rather modest appearance. They are often boiled whole before being sliced and fried.
We have some raw ones on sale for those who like their seafood fresh!
Taste:
Cod roe is a delicacy with its distinct smell of fish, but the strong odour has been toned down by marinating in a sauce containing salt or other seasonings.
The unique taste can be salty, which complements well with rice and pasta dishes as well as appetizers for many different tastes buds.
