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 in fresh water 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 and fillet the fish.
2. Heat 200 ml olive oil in a flat,
heavy-bottomed dish. Add the fish and
cook over a low heat, stirring with a
wooden spoon.
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. Transfer the mixture (brandade) into
an oven-proof dish, and place in the
oven.
