Frittele di Baccalà (Italy)
These traditional Italian fries use salted cod as the star ingredient and combine it with a thick, leavened dough often flavored with parsley. When soaked in water or milk, the fish is either exfoliated and added to the batter, or cut into pieces that are then simply dipped into the mixture.
Both versions are fried until golden and crispy and can be enjoyed as a starter or a light main course. The dish is often associated with the Liguria region and is traditionally consumed on Christmas Eve.
