Cod soup aromatic
As a good Roman by adoption, I can not appreciate the cod. But what is the cod? maybe many people know this already, but as they say always repetita iuvant . In Italian salt cod is nothing if not the cod fillets preserved in salt, before being used in the kitchen for a recipe to be desalted, that is deprived of a salt crust on the surface and then soaked in water for about 48 hours since the change by several times, even better would be to leave a trickle of running water.
in Rome according to tradition, the cod is eaten with the beans or tomato sauce with olives and potatoes (as they say the cod the old way).
In fact, this fish can be cooked in many ways, for example, you can make tasty meatballs, baked in white with milk and cheese or tomato sauce, fried in fillets in a crunchy breading, and so on.
Before moving to the recipe I want to clarify one thing on the fish: if someone is in Veneto, keep in mind that in this region is commonly called cod what is called in Italian dried cod, which is always dried cod fillet, but all ' air. From their salted cod is called bertagnin and has very little use.
