To Cook Cod-fish
Ingredients
Directions
Soak the cod-fish in cold water overnight.
In the morning, transfer the fish to a kettle of fresh water and warm it by the fire.
Half an hour before serving, move the fish to another kettle of fresh water and simmer it over low heat until nearly boiling, but do not let it boil.
Recipe from a historical cookbook (Internet Archive).
Transcribed from a scanned cookbook and modernised for today's kitchens. Where the book gave no heat or time, or said "a moderate oven", the temperatures and times here may be modern equivalents rather than the book's own figures.
