Q: Can I use another type of fish for this recipe?
A: Yes, you can substitute the Norwegian Arctic Cod with other firm white fish, but the taste and texture might vary slightly.
Q: Is it necessary to steam the fish?
A: Steaming preserves the delicate texture of the cod, but you can also gently pan-fry it if preferred.
Q: Can I make this sandwich with regular bread instead of a baguette?
A: Absolutely, feel free to use any bread you like, though the crusty texture of a baguette adds a nice contrast.
