On request, however, a gourmet codfish beak can be ordered from many fishmongers, often at a higher price.
Nowadays{[when?], different fish species such as hake, pollack or haddock are used for gourmets, as whiting and cod have become scarce due to overfishing. Hake is now also overfished and juvenile whiting are often caught as bycatch as fish that are too small. For a number of years, therefore, the farmed freshwater fish species Pangasius pangasius has been used for a gourmand, which many gourmand lovers have criticized for its ground taste.

Nowadays, the previously mentioned fish species are chosen more often. More and more fishmongers are specifying which fish species they use for gourmands, specialties or kibbeling.
