Time 55m

Yield 8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary
3 tablespoons red vinegar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 small red onions
1 clove garlic
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoons cumin seeds
1 pound salt cod, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 pound potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes
4 cups milk
4 cloves garlic
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Chopped fresh parsley
Flax seed toast points (or other sourdough or sturdy bread)

Steps:

  • For the escabeche: Slice the onions in thin half-moons and set aside. Brown the garlic in the oil in a skillet over high heat. Then add the cumin seeds to scent the oil. Add the onions and rosemary and saute at a high heat. When the onions are sauteed, but before they turn soft, add the red vinegar and remove from the heat. Season with salt and pepper.
  • For the brandade: Add the salt cod to a pot, cover generously with cold water and bring to a boil. Drain the water, and then add the potatoes, milk and garlic. Bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are soft. Drain the liquid and discard.
  • Add the salt cod-potato mixture to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Slowly add the heavy cream and olive oil. Whisk until the ingredients are evenly disbursed, about 3 minutes.
  • Preheat the broiler. Put the brandade into an oven-safe dish and broil until golden brown peaks appear on the top, about 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and place the escabeche on top. Drizzle with the olive oil and chopped parsley and serve with toast points.

This dish was just okay. The brandade was a bit too oily for my taste, and the escabeche wasn't very flavorful. I probably won't make this again.

I'm not sure what went wrong with this dish. I followed the recipe exactly, but the brandade turned out rubbery and the escabeche was too salty. I'll have to try again.

This dish was a disaster! The brandade was dry and crumbly, and the escabeche was too vinegary. I won't be making this again.

The brandade was a bit bland for me, but the escabeche was delicious. I'll try adding more herbs and spices to the brandade next time.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste, but the flavors were still good. I think I'll try making it again with a lighter fish.

I was skeptical about this dish at first, but I'm so glad I tried it. The brandade was so smooth and creamy, and the escabeche added a nice brightness. I'll definitely be making this again.

This dish was a delight to make and even better to eat. The brandade was creamy and flavorful, and the escabeche added a nice tanginess. I'll definitely be making this again!

This brandade with escabeche was a hit! The flavors were incredibly balanced, and the texture was smooth and creamy. I especially loved the contrast between the richness of the brandade and the acidity of the escabeche.
