Ingredients:


1 pound salted codfish

2 1/2 tablespoons parsley

1 large onion -- minced well chopped

8 tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons dry sherry

2 large tomatoes -- peeled and chopped

4 teaspoons green olives -- chopped

1 clove garlic

1 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste

1 can pimientos -- shredded (4-ounce)

1/4 teaspoon oregano
 

Preparation / Directions:


This came from one of the other cookbooks I picked up last weekend. Nice segue, eh? Inherited from Spain, this codfish dish is a favorite of the Mexicans. Soak codfish for 8 hours in enough cold water to cover it. Drain and shred the fish. Sauté the onion in the oil until it is softened. Add codfish and sauté a few more minutes. Add the remaining ingredients. Simmer slowly until codfish is tender, about 1/2 hour or more. From "The Art of Mexican Cooking" by Jan Aaron and Sachs Salom. Doubleday and Company, N.Y., 1965.
