Time 8h50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 hard bread cakes, such as Purity®, split horizontally
1 pound salt cod steaks, skinned and cut into 1/2-inch strips
1 teaspoon salt
½ pound fatback, diced

Steps:

  • Place hard bread into a pot. Cover bread with several inches of cool water, place a lid on the pot, and soak 8 hours to overnight.
  • Rinse salt cod under running cool water; place into a pot. Cover fish with several inches of cold water, place a lid on the pot, and soak in the refrigerator 8 hours to overnight.
  • Add salt to soaked bread and bring just to a simmer over medium-low heat and simmer for 2 minutes. Drain immediately; cover to keep warm.
  • Drain fish and cover with fresh water; bring to a boil. Cook until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes. Drain fish; remove any bones. Stir fish into prepared hard bread.
  • Cook and stir fatback in a frying pan over medium heat until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Pour fatback and drippings over fish and bread mixture. Stir gently just to combine; serve immediately.

I tried this recipe last night and it was a hit with my family! The fish was flaky and tender, and the brewis was creamy and flavorful. The scruncheons were a nice touch and added a bit of texture to the dish.
