MOORE'S NEW ENGLAND CODFISH CAKES

Steps:

• Cover the cod with cold water for 1 to 2 hours or until the cod can be torn. Change the water once or twice if the water gets excessively salty-taste. Note: DO NOT over freshen. I think salt cod must be less salty than in days of yore.
• Pare the potatoes but leave whole.
• Place the potatoes & cod in a saucepan just large enough to hold tearing the cod into pieces to fit if necessary. Cover & simmer slowly until the potatoes are tender.
• Drain & separate the cod & potatoes.
• Rice or mash the potatoes.
• Place the cod in the center of a clean kitchen towel. Roll up, & shred the cod by rubbing the cod with your fingers through the towel. (This method allows you to feel any bones that might be lurking in the fish.).
• Mix together the cod & potatoes then mix in the egg & pepper mixture. Taste for salt, add salt if the cod was "over-freshened". Can be refrigerated at this point.
• Shape the mixture into cakes about 2" in diameter & about ½" thick.
• Fry in bacon fat or butter, in a heavy skillet, over medium heat until golden on each side-about 2 or 3 minutes a side.

MOTHER'S FAMOUS CODFISH CAKES

Steps:

• Using a fork, flake the fish into very fine pieces. Using a ricer or electric hand mixer, mash the potatoes with the fresh ginger and pepper to taste.
• Place the fish and the mashed potatoes in a large bowl. Add the egg yolks and heavy cream and combine well.
• Form the mixture into 12 patties and fry in butter over medium heat until golden on each side, about 4 minutes per side.

CODFISH CAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Cook until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
• Cut fish into large chunks; pulse in a food processor to coarsely chop. Transfer to a medium bowl. Add onion, tarragon, egg, and Tabasco, and combine well. Add remaining salt and pepper. Form 8 patties (3 inches each); dredge them in breadcrumbs, shaking off excess.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Cook 4 patties until browned, about 4 to 5 minutes on each side. Remove to a baking sheet, cover with aluminum foil, and keep warm in oven. Wipe out skillet, return to heat, and add remaining olive oil. Cook remaining patties, and serve immediately with tartar sauce.

CODFISH CAKES WITH SWEET PEPPERS AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Season cod fillet all over with salt and pepper, then wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or overnight. Rinse briefly with cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
• Fill a saucepan with water. Add thyme and bay leaves and bring to a boil. Carefully slip fish into the water and turn off heat. Wait 2 minutes and test with a fork; the fish should be just done. Drain fish and let cool, then transfer to a mixing bowl and flake.
• Add bread crumbs, lemon zest, parsley, mint, cilantro and scallions to fish. Mix with a wooden spoon until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning.
• Form mixture into 12 balls, flatten them slightly, and arrange on a baking sheet in a single layer. Wrap and refrigerate for 15 minutes, or until ready to cook, up to 4 hours in advance. (Mixture may seem loose and crumbly, but the cakes will hold together when cooked.)
• Put 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large wide skillet over medium-high heat. Add chorizo, if using, and let sizzle for a minute, then add peppers and onions, red pepper flakes, pimentón and garlic. Season with salt and pepper and stir to coat. Let mixture cook, stirring frequently, until onions and peppers soften and begin to brown, about 8 to 10 minutes. Set pan aside. Reheat just before serving.
• To cook fish cakes, pour about 1/4 inch olive oil in a wide cast-iron skillet over medium heat. When it is hot, carefully place fish cakes in the pan in one layer without crowding (work in batches if necessary). Cook until browned on first side, about 3 minutes. Turn cakes over and cook for 2 minutes more, until browned. Serve with the stewed peppers and onions, and lemon wedges.
