Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot or dutch oven. Add the onions, shallots, fennel, leek, garlic and ginger, saute on medium heat for about 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook until it is fully mixed.
- Add the wine, bay leaf, thyme, salt and pepper to taste. The water and 2 tablespoons of the parsley. Bring to a boil and simmer for about 20 minutes. Place the frozen loaf of fish, unwrapped into the pot, bring to a boil and then lower to a simmer. Simmer uncovered 1 1/2 to 2 hours, turning occasionally.
- Transfer fish carefully to a large platter and slice. Pull out the onions from the pot either by straining it or using a slotted spoon, discard. Heat liquid over high heat to reduce the liquid by half, it should take about 20 minutes. Pour over the fish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Serve cold sprinkled with the rest of the parsley and a side of horseradish.
- I found that after it had simmered for about 1 1/2 hours the sauce had already reduced by half so I didn't reduce it further. Also, I did not use the ginger.

FISH CAKES WITH CAPER-PARSLEY SAUCE
"I grew up in the middle of Croatia, near Zagreb, where the cuisine is very heavy - lots of meat and potatoes," writes Snjezana Hercigonja of Raleigh, North Carolina. "But when I was young, it was customary to vacation on the Mediterranean coast in the summer, where you go to the market every day to see what's good, and everything is really fresh and light. Even the fat is good, since it's usually olive oil. This recipe is based on dishes from that region." Make these instead of crab cakes for a starter or light lunch - they're fantastic.

Creamy parsley sauce -- here, over cod -- is an old English favorite. The herb is stirred in at the end, so it maintains its vibrant flavor and color. This main dish is delicious served with boiled potatoes or rice.

Steps:
- Melt butter over medium heat in a small saucepan. Add flour; whisk until a paste forms. Reduce heat to low; cook, whisking, 2 minutes. Whisking constantly, pour in milk in a slow, steady stream; whisk until incorporated. Whisk in stock. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt, and cook, whisking occasionally, 10 minutes. Remove from heat; let stand 10 minutes to thicken slightly. Stir in parsley and chives.
- Meanwhile, bring 1 1/2 quarts water, the lemon peel, 1/4 cup lemon juice, and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a boil in a medium saute pan or other wide straight-sided pan. Place fillets in liquid (do not crowd). Return to a boil, then immediately turn off the heat. Let stand until just cooked through, about 10 minutes.
- Reheat sauce over medium-low heat, if necessary, and add remaining 2 teaspoons lemon juice. Gently lift fillets from liquid with a slotted spatula; place a fillet on each of four plates. Spoon one-quarter of sauce over each serving, and garnish with a parsley sprig.
