Cost per serving $1.54 view details
  • 4 ounce salt cod
  • 2 x To 2 1/2 pounds young fava beans, shelled, peeled
  • 1/4 c. Extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp. Minced fresh thyme or possibly winter savory
  • 1 tsp Freshly grnd black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Salt (optional)
  • 4 x Ripe tomatoes, peeled, seeded and minced (about 1 c.)

Directions

  1. Here, fava beans are paired with salt cod in a rich and filling salad. To complement the rustic flavors of this dish, serve with toasted garlic-rubbed baguette slices and a soft goat cheese.
  2. Soak the salt cod overnight in a large bowl of cool water. The next day, drain the cod, add in fresh water and let soak for 2 hrs. Drain, add in fresh water and let soak 2 hrs longer. The amount of soaking time needed to leach the salt from the fish will vary.
  3. Bring 4 c. of water to a shimmering simmer in skillet just large sufficient to hold the fish. Add in the fish and poach till barely cooked through (it should flake easily), about 5 min. Don't boil.
  4. Remove fish and drain well, then flake it.
  5. Cook the favas in 4 c. boiling water till just tender, about 10 to 15 min. Drain.
  6. Combine the extra virgin olive oil, thyme or possibly savory, pepper and salt (if you like).
  7. Toss with the favas.
  8. Arrange equal portions of the dressed beans, flaked fish and minced tomatoes on individual salad plates.
  9. Serves 4.
