Atlantic Haddock is a member of the cod family, distinguishable by a dark stripe running lengthwise along its body and a black spot above the pectoral fin, sometimes referred to as a thumbprint. Harvested from the North Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Iceland, haddock is favored for its mildly sweet flavor and lean, flaky texture.
The North Atlantic Barents Sea Haddock Fishery was certified as sustainable by the Marine Stewardship Council in 2010.
