Salt Cod Fillet

Contains Fish

Also known as Bacalao. This is a classic Spanish preparation for one of the world's most popular fish. Give it a day to soak in a few changes of water, and you have the makings of an out-of-the-ordinary fish dish. Once it's been soaked, salt cod is soft, milky, and only mildly salty — sauté it, poach it, or add it to stews and soups. Or make brandade, a classic mixture of potatoes, olive oil and salt cod puree.
