Bom Porto Frozen Shredded Paloco (500g)

Paloco Pacífico Desfiado Bom Porto 500g

Enjoy the rich, comforting flavours of authentic Iberian seafood dishes with maximum convenience thanks to Bom Porto Frozen Shredded Paloco. In traditional European kitchens, Paloco (a species belonging to the same family as Pacific Cod) is celebrated as a smart, practical alternative to classic Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua). It delivers a similarly delicate, flaky texture but at a much more economical value for everyday cooking.

The ultimate kitchen time-saver, this 500g family pack comes pre-shredded and flash-frozen. Most importantly, it requires no time-consuming desalting or overnight soaking—allowing you to skip the 24-to-48-hour wait and dive straight into cooking your favorite comfort foods right out of the freezer.

Key Features & Benefits

• Ready-to-Cook Praticidade: Arrives completely desalted, skinless, boneless, and perfectly shredded. No soaking, no messy cleanup, and no tedious prep work required.
• Mild & Delicate Flavor: Features a soft, subtle white fish profile that beautifully absorbs the aromatic flavors of extra virgin olive oil, garlic, and fresh herbs.
• Perfect Flaky Texture: The shredded (migas) format holds its integrity beautifully when baked, pan-fried, or simmered, creating a wonderful mouthfeel in casseroles, stews, and fillings.
• Flash-Frozen Freshness: Individually quick-frozen to lock in the fish's natural moisture, delicate juices, and clean sea flavor right up until it hits your pan.

Quintessential Recipes to Try

• Bacalhau à Brás: The ultimate Portuguese tavern comfort food. Sauté the thawed Paloco with onions and garlic in plenty of olive oil, toss with thin-cut straw potatoes (batata palha), fold in beaten eggs off the heat until creamy, and garnish with black olives.
• Bacalhau com Natas (Fish with Cream): Layer the shredded fish with cooked diced potatoes and a rich, velvety béchamel cream sauce. Top generously with grated melting cheese and bake until golden brown and bubbling.
• Bolinhos / Pastéis de Bacalhau (Fish Croquettes): Blend the cooked shredded fish with smooth mashed potatoes, eggs, parsley, and onions. Shape into traditional oval dumplings and deep-fry until golden-crisp on the outside and pillow-soft inside.
