BRANDADE DE MORUE
This is basically a puree or spread made of poached salt cod. Having said it that simply, let me just say that this is one of my most favourite dishes - the ingredients combine to create flavour-perfection. The salt cod has to be soaked for atleast 24 hours with many changes of water.
