  • Freezing: To freeze leftover fish properly so it doesn't lose flavor or texture, prepare the cod fillets as directed until they are fully cooked through. Allow them to cool completely before placing each piece into its own individual freezer-safe bag or container. Label and freeze for up to three months. When ready to eat, remove from the freezer and defrost in the refrigerator overnight. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat until heated through.
