Baccala (Salt Cod) with Potatoes, Capers, and Olives

Baccala (salt cod) is traditionally served as one of the recipes in The Feast of the Seven Fishes. In this episode I'll show you how to make fried salt cod balls (fritters) and how to make it Neapolitan style with potatoes, capers, and Gaeta olives in a delicious puttanesca like sauce. If you want to make this recipe be sure to purchase the baccala at least 3 days prior. It needs to be soaked in water for 2-3 days before making it to remove the salt. I show you how to do this and make the two recipes in this video. Enjoy!

BACCALA ALLA NAPOLETANA PRINT RECIPE: www.sipandfeas...
BACCALA BALLS (SALT COD FRITTERS)
INGREDIENTS
- 1 pound baccala (dried salt cod) - soaked in water for 2-3 days with water changes 12 hours apart until not too salty
- ½ cup fresh parsley - minced
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 1 pound potatoes peeled and cut in half Yukon Gold work well
- 3 cloves garlic - minced
- 1 medium onion - minced
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt - taste a piece of cod to determine if any salt is needed.
- 1 teaspoon black pepper - or more to taste
- vegetable oil - for frying
- lemon wedges - for serving
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Rinse the salt cod and place in a large pot with the milk and enough water to cover. Cook at a simmer for 15-20 minutes.
2. Drain the cod and remove any bones and skin pieces. When cool enough to handle shred the cod into small pieces.
3. Boil potatoes until fork tender.
4. Mash the potatoes and mix with the cod, eggs, parsley, onion, garlic, and pepper to form the batter.
5. Prepare a deep heavy pot for frying with vegetable oil.
6. To make the salt cod balls take a tablespoon of the batter and and with oiled hands form a ball.
7. Once the oil hits 370f begin frying the cod balls for 4-5 minutes or until golden brown on all sides. Taste test one and if they need a bit of salt add it right when the batches come out of the oil. Serve with lemon wedges. Enjoy!

Both of those dishes look fantastic. When I was a child growing up in San Francisco my mother and grandmother (both from Naples) would get together and make loads of fresh pasta, sauces and codfish balls. Finally I have found a recipe for them that I can also now make. It is very straightforward and well explained. Thank you again, very much - lots of memories for me here. D

My grandmother always brought the bacala salad on Christmas Eve. All I remember is it had about 1 1/2 inch chunks of bacala, and she would arrange large green olives with the pits and large black olives around the edge of the platter. It was drizzled with olive oil but there must have had other ingredients but that's all I can remember because as a kid I wouldn't eat it. Watching your channel is sometimes like a trip down memory lane! 😊

I usually boil the fish in water 1-2 times and save the water (for later) to get the salt off if I'm pressed for time. I do the taste test to make sure I'm not getting all the salt off. It's better to soak it like you did, but can be boiled if you are cooking this the same day. This is great!

Use to make the fresh cod/ white fish fritters years ago with my grandmother, we used to grate the onions, it was a staple at oma's along with frikadellen and bratkartoffeln . Depending on how strong the onion was we would sometimes rinse it in cold water. Never tried cod with tomatoes like the second recipe but i'll give it a try next time i got the fish mongers. Love these video so many familar yet different recipes, methods and seasonings. Take care, God bless one and all.

I make a dish I call "Merluzzo de San José" which used frozen cod in lieu of salt cod (which is more $$$) and to try to keep it Keto friendly I use 2 cans of Italian herbed diced tomatoes and some tomato paste, no potatoes, but 5-6 cloves of garlic, capers and garlic stuffed green olives from Gilroy, CA. and cilantro in lieu of parsley. I add chili flake and fresh cracked black pepper. No flour (again b/c carbs) and roast in the oven at 400f for 20 mins with bite sized pieces of cod. Stirring half way through the 20 mins. Fresh cilantro on top to serve. If it is too soupy, I will add a corn starch slurry at the end, but only if needed. Thanks for your videos!

We also had bacala for our Christmas Eve but my aunt and uncle did bacala salad. 36 hrs of soaking...cook ...a rough shred...mixed with garlic black olives onion fresh squeezed lemon juice and then cut lemons up olive oil pepper and mix all together. That's what I remember. Don't think anything else was in it. Problem is they passed recently within 6 months of each other. She was 106 and he was 104. I am so angry at myself for not having them give me recipe. I'm doing this from memory of what I remember seeing and tasting. We are Napolitano so if anyone can help me out here I would so appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

I cook this similar (the bunuelos/fritters), but use one egg and one egg yoke instead of 2 eggs and chives instead of onion. I also don't pre cook the cod, you don't have to as it cooks in the oil. I often don't add parsley. Shape them with two spoons and fry in deeper oil so they float, this way they turn on their own when they are done! They are lovely cold too if you don't eat them all!

There is an eggplant parmigiana dish in the frozen food section, but the sauce is way too acidic but it still sells. For all of us who are cooking for just one or two, we would stock up on good food!

Hey there! Milk is traditionally used for slow cooking the dry baccala, especially for fritters and salad recipes. It supposedly makes the fish moister and helps it retain it's white color. Truth be told I've never tried doing it without the milk so I'm not sure how much of a difference it makes.

Hello Chef. I cannot take dairy or cheese, hence can I replace it with almond milk or coconut milk? Thank you.

@SipandFeast 3 жыл бұрын

Hey the milk is used to supposedly keep it moister, but I am pretty sure it will work with just lightly simmering in straight water. I wouldn't use the coconut or almond milk, because they might alter the flavor too much. Hope you enjoy it!

I saved this video because I want to make the 2nd recipe, but first I have a question for you, I only make salt cod on Christmas Eve, so I'm just going to use Cod from the fish market, you said to use a dry wine, which I do have, but I also have a Riesling which is what I tend to use, any reason why you don't like to use a sweet wine?

@SipandFeast 3 жыл бұрын

Yes I would just use fresh cod outside of Christmas time. I normally cook with dry white wine. My go-to cooking wine is an $8-10 bottle of Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon blanc for the most part. I find sweet wines tend to be a little much for cooking, but it might be good with fish. If that's what you like I would continue to use it. Enjoy!

@@SipandFeast I have a terrible sweet tooth, and since I live alone there's really no one here to complain usually lol, but I will try the dry white wine since I have it on hand and let you know. My brother's girlfriend has a birthday coming up, she loves fish, and I know my brother will sucker me into cooking dinner, this will be on the menu 😉 Thanks for the recipe!

Why do you put milk with it? Is it something you do traditionally?

@hopepaloukis7894 3 жыл бұрын

I know this is going to sound crazy but if you ADD salt to your water the salt will come out of the cod faster. This is how I've been doing it for years. Trust me it works.

@SipandFeast 3 жыл бұрын

Interesting! Did you learn this from someone or by just experimenting? I've seen some chefs recommend boiling it to remove salt quicker, but never heard your way before.

@@SipandFeast this is how they do it in Greece. My Mom always did it that way and so have I. It works and it only takes 24 hours. Fill your bowl with water add a half cup or more of salt and add the cod cut in portions. Change water every 6 hours, and add more salt every time you change the water.. I usually start this process the morning of the day before I want to cook the cook for supper. Just take in account the thickness of the cod, the thicker pieces I cut smaller.

Thanks for sharing! I'll give this way a try the next time I make it.
