I have been making a salad similar this for years. The only difference is that after soaking the Baccala ,I broil it so it dries out and gets brown and crispy. It is fabulous and very tasty. The fish absorbs the oil anf the vinager from the peppedrs. I sometime add mint as well as parsly. Try it I think you will like it, my family looks forward to our traditional Christmas Eve dinner where we serve 9 fish dishes.

Being italian, this recipe is a staple in our christmas eve "Feast of the seven fish" tradition. This recipe is almost exactly like ours, except we bake the baccala for this salad-the flavor and texture are a bit better (I find boiling the baccala makes it a bit mushy). But you all should try this as a flavor treat-much different than your regular "tuna salad."
