COD FISH CAKES (BERMUDA)
I used this recipe for week 30 of my food blog, "Travel by Stove." I am attempting to cook on meal from every nation on Earth, and Bermuda is my 30th stop. Please note that I never use any recipe for my blog that I'm not reasonably sure is from authentic or traditional sources, and this recipe has been posted without any alternations or additions to the ingredients. These cod fish cakes are really more like potato cakes with a little bit of cod meat added. I think they work best as a side dish.

Steps:
- Rinse the salt off of the cod fish. Cover cod with cold water and soak for 24 hours, changing water two or three times. Drain off water. In a saucepan, cover cod with cold water; bring just to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or until tender. Drain, and when cool enough to handle, remove any skin and bones, then shred.
- In a saucepan, boil the peeled potatoes in salted water with 2 garlic cloves and hot pepper flakes just until tender. Drain and mash.
- In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients until well mixed using a hand mixer on low. Start with using 4 eggs, but if the mixture is too dry, add another egg, one at a time (see picture).
- Heat frying pan and add a bit of oil. Form a small patty and cook on medium heat. When bottom has colour, flip and finish cooking.
- Taste the cake, and adjust the salt and pepper if needed. If the patty doesn't hold together, you may need to add an additional egg.
- Continue making the cakes, stirring the mixture often, adding oil as needed. Drain the cakes on paper towels.
- Cakes can be served hot or at room temperature.
- Note: The pimento paste is available in the international section of a store.

CAPTAIN DUARTE'S SALT COD CAKES
Based on my father-in-laws recipe, these fish cakes use salt cod. Trust me, it is worth the effort to find the salt cod. The slight saltiness of the cod brings out a whole new dimension of flavor. Who knows fish better than a Portuguese fishing Capt? Even Emeril would be proud! Serve with a good tartar sauce.

Steps:
- Place the salt cod into a bowl and cover with cold water. Refrigerate for 8 hours. Pour off the water and replace with fresh water every 2 hours. After the fish has soaked for 8 hours, rinse in cold water, and cut into 3-inch sections.
- Place the cod and potatoes into a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are tender and the cod flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes. Drain and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
- Place the potatoes and cod into a mixing bowl. Season with the seafood seasoning, pepper, and parsley; roughly mash with a potato masher. Stir in the eggs and onion until evenly combined. There should still be pieces of cod and potato in the mixture. Form into golf ball-sized pieces, and roll in the flour. Press between your palms to flatten slightly.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the cod cakes in batches until golden and crispy on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

Tips:
- To ensure the fish cakes hold together well, make sure to remove excess moisture from the cod before mixing it with the other ingredients.
- For a crispier crust, coat the fish cakes in breadcrumbs before pan-frying them.
- If you don't have any fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs instead. Just be sure to use about half the amount of dried herbs as you would fresh.
- Serve the fish cakes with your favorite dipping sauce, such as tartar sauce, remoulade, or cocktail sauce.
