Chiquetaille de Morue (Pickled Codfish)

Chiquetaille (pronounced “shi-tie”) de Morue, a popular Haitian appetizer, is refreshing, colorful, and tasty. Flaked codfish is mixed with a peppery and mouth-puckering vinaigrette, for a light but authentic taste of the Caribbean.

### INGREDIENTS

- 1 lb salted codfish
- 1 stalk scallion, finely chopped
- 3 or 4 sprigs of parsley, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup white onion, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh hot pepper, chopped (Habanero or Scotch Bonnet)
- 1/2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp fresh lime juice
- 1 clove garlic, minced

### INSTRUCTIONS

1. Thoroughly rinse the codfish then place it in a large bowl of water. Allow to soak for a few hours. Cut the fish into large pieces, then boil in fresh water for 5 minutes. Discard the water and repeat the boiling process to remove excess salt.
2. Combine all remaining ingredients in a separate bowl. Shred codfish into small pieces and add it to the bowl, then stir. Add salt to taste.
3. Serve hot or cool.

   This was made with dried salted herring instead and was delicious. The only difference is it was fried crisp with all the ingredients
