Hello dear friends,here in Croatia,on the coast of Adriatic sea, we cant imagine Holidays without cod-fish!We prepare cod-fish on few different way but now i will write how to prepare “in bianco”.
First you have to find nice cod-fish!
Try in Italian or Croatian delicateness!
You have to buy dried cod-fish!!
About 800 gr. will be nice for 6 doses!
You have to buy it few days before because you first put dried fish in water for4-5 days!
After that fish became soft and you have twice more of it!
How to prepare and all you need find here:

Integrates:

  • 1 medium size bakalar (dried cod-fish)
  • 1 lb of potatoes, peeled and thickly sliced
  • 4 cloves of garlic, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon of chopped Italian parsley
  • 1 cup of virgin Olive Oil
  • Salt and freshly ground white pepper and milk /if you like/

Directions

  1. Soak the bakalar in cold water for 72 hours, changing the water every 12 hours.
  2. Peel the skin off and flake the fish.
  3. Remove the bones and the brown gut section.
  4. Cook the bakalar in water in a large pot for 2-3 hours over a medium heat.
  5. Cook potatoes separately.
  6. Drain both well.
  7. Place both into a large bowl and add parsley, salt, pepper, oil and garlic and mix until the dish is almost a paste containing lumps of potato .
  8. I like to mix with just a little milk or you can cooked cod-fish in milk!
