Millefoglie di baccalà al latte with Scalogno Nero di Romagna wafer

Codfish in milk with black shallot wafer from Romagna

Fourth leg of our flavour journey in the company of chef Mattia Borroni and of Azzurra Gasperini. This time we find ourselves - metaphorically of course - in Venetohome of the salt cod and its a thousand declinations. In this recipe we find cod in a millefeuille special in which the sweetness of the milk clashes with the savouriness of the broccoli and the full flavour of the Black Shallot of Romagna.

Although they are always cod, cod and stockfish are profoundly different. The former is salted cod, while the latter involves long air-drying in the cold, dry days of the Norwegian winter.

Ingredients for 2 servings
  • 4 Brussels sprouts
  • Olive oil
  • Halls
  • 1 lemon peel
  • 6/7 basil leaves
  • A few parsley leaves
  • 4 cloves of Nero di Voghiera garlic

We start by finishing rinse the cod (formerly desalted and left to soak in fresh water for at least 24 hours) by soaking it in milk 10-15′, then remove it, turn on the heat and soak it again as soon as the milk comes to the boil. We leave cook for about 6-7 minutesthen drain and set aside.

Meanwhile we prepare the wafers: let's mix waterbreadcrumbs and paste of Black Shallot of Romagnawith the help of a beaker blender to mix the ingredients well. The consistency should be the consistency of a polenta light. We give the wafers the shape we want by rolling out the dough on a baking tray, then bake for 5-7′ at 160 degrees Celsius.

We prepare a coarse pesto combining extra virgin olive oil, chopped lemon peel, salt, chopped Nero di Voghiera garlic, a few drops of lemon, parsley and basil. Let's mix vigorously so as to release the flavours and let it season a few minutes while apart, we browse the sprouts and skip the leaves at frying pan over high heat until burnt e crispy.

We unravel and we flake the codPlace it on the plate and sprinkle it with the pestothe leaves of sprout and the Black Shallot of Romagna waffles.
