Salt cod | ||
 Cod that has been salted and dried to preserve it for long periods of time. Salt cod is evident in cuisines of the Mediterranean and Caribbean Seas. To reconstitute the fish, soak it several times in fresh water to remove any excess salt, making sure to replace the water with every time. Afterwards, poach the fish until it is just flaking off the bone, or use it raw for other preparations. |
