Salt cod brandade
Serves 6
1 kg dried cod
250 ml milk
600-700 ml olive oil
Salt and pepper
Method:
1. Soak the dried cod for 24 hours,
changing the water frequently. Cut into
large chunks, and simmer in a pan of
boiling water for 8 minutes. Remove the
fish, drain and leave to cool. Skin the
fish and remove any bones.
2. Heat 200 ml olive oil in a flat,
heavy-bottomed pan. Add the fish, and
stir with a wooden spoon over a low
heat.
3. When the oil and the fish are
thoroughly mixed, remove from the
heat, and slowly add 400-500 ml olive
oil and 250 ml boiling milk alternately.
Season with salt and pepper. The
mixture should be nice and soft.
4. Pour the mixture (brandade) into an
oven-proof dish, and place in the oven.
