Bacalao Guisado Puerto Rican Fish Stew
- Fish
Bacalao—salted dried codfish—is the defining ingredient in traditional Puerto Rican fish stew, but salt cod requires overnight soaking and several rinses in cool water before it can be used. We opt for fresh fish in this quick version. Serve with crusty rolls to soak up the juices.
