Here Below a typical recipe from Toscana thanks to the partnership with the blogger Simona Ciampi, we will prepare this beautiful and tasty recipe.
This dish, the raisins and pine nuts salt cod, my grandmother cooked it, originated in the area between the provinces of Florence and Pisa. Unfortunately she died when I was 4 years old, but I like that the dishes and traditions are hand down, is a way to remember also those who are no more.
I remember the day when my father told my mother the following sentence: “The Mom did it with raisins and pine nuts” referring of course to the cod and then even my mom started to cook it.
And now I cook as well!
