Ingredients
- 57 g whipped stoccafisso
- 60 g rustic Tuscan bread
- 15 g extra-virgin olive oil
- 57 g wild baby arugula
- 20 g pitted olives, sliced
- 10 g red bell pepper (garnish)
- 15 g cream (optional)
- 0.5 g lemon zest
Contains fish; dairy optional. Verify ingredient labels for allergens.
Preparation
- Desalt & cook the cod (make ahead): Soak dried stoccafisso under cold water for 3 days, changing the water twice daily and keeping it refrigerated. Gently poach until flaky. Cool and flake.
- Whip the filling: Blend the cod with olive oil (and a spoon of cream if using) until silky. Adjust with a splash of poaching liquid for a spreadable consistency. Season with a touch of lemon zest and black pepper.
- Assemble: Spread the whipped stoccafisso onto one bread slice. Top with arugula and olives; close with the second slice.
- Grill: Brush both sides with olive oil and grill in a pan or press until golden and crisp.
- Serve: Trim edges, cut into small triangles, stand pieces vertically, and garnish with a fine “diamond” of red bell pepper and a drizzle of olive oil.
