First I would like to say that I rea...Hello John! <br /><br />First I would like to say that I really like your blog. <br /><br />And now, I am Portuguese rootman and I didn't like this dish (I am sorry John it’s nothing personal, just Portuguese pride talking). I think it's something missing, it's too simple.<br /><br />Codfish (Bacalhau in Portuguese) is an amazing fish and we do love it where in Portugal. So my suggestion is, make a Portuguese Codfish dish. I am sure you will just love it.<br /><br />Just try Cod with cream or Cod in the oven with cream and onions sauce. <br /><br />If you need any help finding a good recipe or translating something just let me know.Ana Leitãohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18379464946184727775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-63421376313258085312011-04-09T20:43:17.915-04:002011-04-09T20:43:17.915-04:00I live for this kind of cooking.

Puttanesca has it's ingredients because there was *always* lots of capers, olives and anchovie paste, a couple saucing tomatos, maybe an unwanted zuke or two, left on the shelves of the stores by the time it was time for the Puttanesca to do their shopping. Ever heard this iteration of the tale, Chef John? <BR/><BR/>Thanks for another outstanding, mouth watering video recipe.
