Fried baccala or salted cod is one of my favorite dishes, it'a indispensable at the Christmas eve supper, for example, I like it anytime. First it must be soaked in water for at least a day while changin the water at least three times and then it's ready to prepare. There are innumerable ways to cook it but I prefer to prepare a pastella, batter, and fry it in olive oil. Just superb.

 Traditional fare on Christmas Eve. Fried baccala in pastella, batter, In Italy we do not do the seven fishes. It's an Italo American tradition but baccala is a must.
