Click to zoomHaddock Loins (Frozen, Atlantic)
What it is
Atlantic haddock loins are the thick centre cut of the fillet — white, firm, and slightly sweeter and finer than cod.
How we handle it
Frozen as loins and stored solid, sold by weight. Thaw in the fridge overnight, then dry the surface well.
How to cook it
This is the fish-and-chips fish: beer batter and hot oil. It also bakes well under crumbs and butter. Classic Fish and Chips with Beer Batter.
Good to know
Loins are cut from the thickest part of the fillet, so they cook evenly instead of drying out at the thin tail end.
