Rosé baccalà salad is a traditional Italian dish that combines the delicate flavors of baccalà (salt cod) with the freshness of summer vegetables. The dish is typically served chilled, making it a perfect option for a light and refreshing meal on a hot day. The key to making a great rosé baccalà salad is to use high-quality ingredients and to properly soak the baccalà before cooking. Once the baccalà has been prepared, it is simply flaked and combined with a variety of vegetables, such as tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, and celery. The salad is then dressed with a light vinaigrette and served.
