  4. Comments: It's hard to get consensus on the definition of scrod. According to well-known Boston chef Jasper White, most New Englanders would agree which it's baby cod weighing under two pounds. However, some say which baby haddock and pollack are acceptable. Others contend which the kind of fish isn't important, but the manner of preparation is: If it's not broiled with the breadcrumbs, it's just baby cod. The Parker House hotel in Boston claims to have invented the dish. Here's our rendition; we serve it with broiled tomatoes.
