Cod and Potato Brandade Recipe

Have you ever tried homemade Cod and Potato Brandade Recipe?

To be honest, I thought that cod brandade could be a long and complicated recipe to make at home, but this is not the case at all.

In fact, you just have to desalinate the cod that you will have found at your favorite fishmonger’s, without rinsing it too much, otherwise it will lose its flavor. I explain it in detail in the recipe below.

At home, we like to enjoy this recipe with a good green salad drizzled with a lemon and garlic vinaigrette, it’s really delicious and it goes very well with this gratin.
