How do you store baked cod with white wine sauce?

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Suitable for up to 2 days. Reheat: Carefully in the microwave or in a pan over low heat until heated through.

How do you ensure the cod stays perfectly moist in the oven?

Cod is a delicate fish that can dry out quickly if cooked for too long. The secret to this recipe lies in the combination of pan and oven. By first searing the fish for 3 minutes per side, you lock in the moisture. Then, the cod is simply and quickly finished in the oven: after just 3 minutes at 190°C, it's perfectly cooked, super juicy, and flakes apart into beautiful, glossy lamellae.

Can I make this cod with white wine sauce in the oven with a different fish as well?

Absolutely! This cod recipe is perfect for variations. Don't have cod at home? Then you can easily prepare this dish with another firm white fish, such as haddock, skrei, or ling. Even a piece of salmon tastes fantastic with this combination of white wine sauce and shrimp!

What should I serve with this baked cod with sauce?

Because the cod with shrimp sauce is already wonderfully rich and creamy, a light potato puree or a smooth winter 'stoemp' (mashed potatoes with vegetables) pairs perfectly to soak up all that delicious sauce. Finish the dish with some fresh seasonal vegetables, such as steamed leeks, al dente bimi, or lightly stir-fried spinach, and you have a top-notch meal.

Easy

A succulent piece of fish with a golden-brown crust, topped with a velvety sauce and finished with the pride of our North Sea: delicious, hand-peeled grey shrimp. I first pan-fry the fish briefly for that delicious crust, and then I transfer the cod to the oven so that it remains perfectly succulent and translucent inside. Delicious and simple enough for a weeknight, but chic enough to impress your guests.
