Nutritional values

The high-quality protein in cod stimulates the metabolism and serves as a building material for cells, muscles, enzymes as well as hormones. The valuable proteins also prevent cravings and muscle loss.

Can't get hold of any cod? No problem: The dish is also a delight with other light-colored fish. You can also vary the herbs - for example, use parsley or basil instead of chives.
