My thoughts

When we went to Portugal (five years ago, how tin dismiss that be?) we had the proficient fortune to attempt out many things made with tabular array tabular array salt cod, bacalhau. Supposedly inwards that identify is i tabular array tabular array salt cod dish for every intend solar daytime of the year! Most ofttimes you lot lot encounter it inwards Pastéis de Bacalhau (aka Bolinhos de Bacalhau, Portuguese Cod Cakes) likewise every bit inwards another favorite of mine, Bacalhau à Gomes de Sá is ofttimes served on Christmas Eve but it truly is a way more than versatile seafood than you'd think.

It goes peachy with potatoes which was the inspiration for these latkes, simply inwards 4th dimension for Hanukkah. I larn got nil reasons to intend these are authenticly Portuguese inwards whatever way--they are quite a few  Jewish dishes that remain popular inwards Portugal but latkes aren't i of them. However, these are truly delicious likewise every bit a filling, flavorful modify from plainly latkes. Super savory likewise every bit crispy.

It does get got iii days to prep the fish thus operate shopping now--regular supermarkets inwards my surface surface area deport tabular array tabular array salt cod year-round every flake utilization many Italian likewise every bit Portuguese markets.
