Title: Nero Wolfe's Bacalhau (Portugese Salt Cod)
Categories: Fish, Side dish, Main dish, Portugese
Servings: 4
1 1/2 To 2 lbs soaked dried cod *
2 lg Onions, sliced
6 tb Butter
1 cl Garlic, minced
3 lg Potatoes
2 tb Bread crumbs
10 Pitted green olives
10 Black olives
4 Hard-cooked eggs
1/2 c Chopped fresh parsley
Wine vinegar
Olive oil
Fresh ground black pepper
* NOTE: To prepare dried cod, soak in cold water for about 24 hours, or
until it is completely moistened. Change the water two or three times.
Drain thoroughly.
Put the cod into a saucepan and add enough cold water to cover. Bring to a
boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the fish is
tender. Drain; remove skin and bones. Flake the meat with a fork into
large pieces. Saute the onions in 3 tablespoons of butter until they are
tender and golden in color. Add the garlic. Boil the unpeeled potatoes in
salted water. When they are tender (about 20 minutes), remove from the
heat, put under cold running water, and remove the skins. Drain and slice
into 1/4-inch pieces. Preheat the oven to 350 deg.F. Grease a 1 1/2-quart
casserole with the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter. Arrange a layer of
half the potatoes, then half the cod, then half the onions. Sprinkle with
a little pepper and repeat the layering. Sprinkle the bread crumbs over
the top layer. Bake for 15 minutes, or until heated through and lightly
browned. Before serving, garnish the top with olives and eggs; sprinkle
with parsley. Serve with the wine vinegar and oil in cruets and black
pepper in a small dish.

Servings: 6
1 lb Carrots
1/4 c Cold water
8 tb Butter
1/4 ts Salt
3 tb Sugar
1 tb Orange rind, grated
3 Egg yolks
1/2 c Heavy cream
1 tb Parsley, chopped
2 tb Sweet butter, melted
Wash and scrape the carrots, cutting them into 1-inch sections and trimming
the ends. Blanch them in boiling water to cover for 5 minutes, drain, and
place in a well-buttered casserole. Add the cold water and butter, and
season with salt and sugar. Cover the casserole and bring the liquid to a
boil. Reduce the heat and continue to cook the carrots for 20 minutes or
longer until they are tender. Shake the casserole every 5 minutes or so to
prevent the carrots from sticking to the pan. Five minutes before the
carrots are done, add the grated orange rind and stir. When the carrots are
cooked, remove them from the heat. Mix the egg yolks with the cream,
parsley and melted butter. Add the mixture to the casserole, stirring
gently, and put back over a low flame. When the sauce begins to thicken (do
not let it boil), remove from the heat and serve.
