Ingredients
- 2 pounds dried salted boneless cod (known as baccala)
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 large red onion, thinly slice
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
- 2 limes, juiced
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Salt
Directions
Soak the baccala in cold water for 24 hours to re-hydrate, changing the water 3 times to remove the salt. Drain and rinse under cold water and put into a large pot. Add the milk and enough water to cover by 1-inch. Cook uncovered over medium heat for 45 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool. When fish is cool enough to handle, shred the fish into a bowl, taking care to get all the bones out. Add onion, parsley, and tomatoes. In a separate bowl, whisk together olive oil, vinegar, lime juice, and salt and pepper. Add the dressing to the cod salad, toss and serve.2006 Robert Irvine, All Rights Reserved
