My thoughts:
In Baltimore nosotros convey coddies which are piddling croquettes made amongst tabular array salt cod. You tin dismiss yet uncovering them inwards about Baltimore institutions similar Attman's which sell them amongst their traditional mustard together with saltine accoutrement. Salt cod used to hold out super inexpensive (it is a preserved fish subsequently all together with keeps forever) together with when stretched amongst starches to brand a cake it became an affordable snack/meal for workers. Now I am difficult pressed to uncovering tabular array salt cod that is affordable much less inexpensive together with frankly, betwixt the soaking together with cake-making it is a lot of operate to brand such a humble food. Which is non to say that I volition never post service a coddie recipe (I've gotten requests!) exactly it likely won't hold out anytime soon. Anyway, nosotros similar coddies together with wondered if nosotros could brand about kind of cod cake amongst fresh cod which, oddly, is cheaper than tabular array salt cod. Since nosotros weren't making forthwith upwards coddies, nosotros decided to hold off to the Caribbean Area (another house where they love their seafood) for inspiration. Using the spices together with peppers nosotros shout out back from our Caribbean Area honeymoon (five years ago, oy!) nosotros created a novel comfort food. They are larger than coddies together with then they are perfect to serve at a repast together with fifty-fifty reheat good the side past times side day.
