Tips:

- Brine the cod fillets: Brining helps to keep the fish moist and flavorful. To brine the cod, dissolve 1/2 cup of salt and 1/4 cup of sugar in 4 cups of cold water. Submerge the cod fillets in the brine for 30 minutes, then rinse and pat dry.
- Use a large pot: You'll need a large pot to boil the cod fillets. Make sure the pot is large enough so that the cod fillets are completely submerged in the water.
- Bring the water to a boil before adding the cod: This will help to prevent the cod from overcooking.
- Reduce the heat to low and simmer the cod: Once the water has come to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer the cod for 10-12 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through. To check if the fish is cooked through, insert a fork into the thickest part of the fillet. The fish should flake easily.
- Serve the cod with your favorite sides: Boiled cod is a versatile dish that can be served with a variety of sides. Some popular sides include steamed vegetables, roasted potatoes, and tartar sauce.
