Haddock is up there with cod as one of the UK’s favourite fish. Found on both sides of the Atlantic, it is easily recognised by the black stripe running along its side and characteristic black splotch or “thumbprint” above its pectoral fin. With its mild flavour and lean flaky texture, haddock has long been considered one of the stars of the Great British fish supper. Like cod, haddock is a vulnerable species due to overfishing, so it’s important to only purchase this fish from sustainable sources.
