How to clean Cod:
Scale the fish by placing it in the sink under cold running water. Grasp the fish firmly
by the gills and scrape off scales starting from the tail to the head with a fish scaler
or small, dull knife using short strokes.
To remove the head, cut the flesh on both sides with a knife. If the fish is small,
slice directly through the spine. For a larger fish, place the knife between vertebrae
and tap the back of the knife with a hammer.
