For you artichoke folks - labradors - 07-15-2011

This wouldn't be for me, but sounds like something this group would enjoy. I translated it from a Spanish-language site, but it's not a complicated or particularly exact recipe (and didn't specify the sizes of the cans).

Artichoke and Cod Salad

Ingredients:
  • 1 Can Artichoke hearts
  • 1 Can Piquillo peppers (or pimentos - In the first photo on the page, it looks like a whole pimento and not small enough to be a piquillo)
  • A little salt cod, desalted (i.e. soaked in several changes of water to remove most of the saltiness)
  • Dressing to taste (vinegar and salt are suggested)
Instructions:
  1. Drain the artichokes, peppers and cod well.
  2. Roughly chop everything into more-or-less regular chunks.
  3. Toss everything together with whatever dressing you wish. The original poster prefers vinegar and salt, but says any other dressing and/or seasoning would be fine.
  4. If you wish, you may also add other elements, such as imitation crab or some onion.

Although I love baccala, I've never worked with it myself. Sounds interesting, but not a combination that I would try.

Oh, yeah I can see Roy eating this - Lutefisk with artichokes....


Re: For you artichoke folks - labradors - 07-15-2011

Bacalao is surprisingly good once desalted.


Re: For you artichoke folks - cjs - 07-15-2011

so is Lutefisk.... imo


Re: For you artichoke folks - labradors - 07-15-2011

Have only ever heard of Lutefisk - never seen nor tried it,


Re: For you artichoke folks - cjs - 07-15-2011

Roy calls it eating wallpaper paste.

This is funny, especially after our discussion of lutefisk last weekend.

Sorry Labs, as much as I love all the ingredients (unsure about the salt cod) this just doesn't grab me
