Bacalhau, dried and salted cod, is a Portuguese staple. It is usually served on social occasions and at traditional Christmas Eve dinners.
Bacalhau served at Postigo de Carvão, Rua da Fonte Taurina 24, 4050-029 Porto, Portugal
Most of the time, bacalhau is served with potatoes. On our last night in Portugal, we had dinner at a restaurant that specializes only in serving bacalhau.
Bacalhau served at Laurentina O Rei do Bacalhau, Av. Conde Valbom 71A, 1050-060 Lisboa, Portugal
Before the bacalhau arrived, I stuffed myself with the numerous appetizers, so I had little room left for the well presented cod dish. Caetano, the tour manager, was disappointed at my half-eaten plate. I assured him it wasn’t the dish. It was my full belly that’s to blame.

I have only seen the rehydrated fish — it look slimey and soft. But I suppose prepared correctly, i could be great. On the other hand, I told myself, Scandinavians eat lutefish — back and forth go my tastebuds as they imagine it. I gather you liked it; maybe that will stop my tastebud’s imaginary debate.

I only saw them served nicely on a plate. They tasted good. I love fish, so I didn’t have any issues. It’s an acquired taste, I think. Some people did not like them.
