Baccalà alla Vicentina (Vicenza Style Cod Fish)

Recipe from: Angela's Italian Organic Oregano
Servings: 4

1 pound stockfish (dry cod)
2 fresh anchovies, unsalted, skinless and boneless
2 cloves garlic, chopped
¼ tablespoon fresh Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, grated
1 and ¼ cups onions, sliced
1 cup milk
2 cups extra virgin olive oil
a pinch salt
fresh ground black pepper

Cod should be cleaned, skinless and boneless. If using salted stockfish, pre-soak in cold running water for at least 24 hours, and wash pieces individually every 8 hours. Anchovies should be fresh or defrosted frozen. Sauté onions in olive oil until transparent. In a bowl, mix the parsley, garlic and anchovies. With a fork, spread some of the mixture on each piece of fish, sprinkle with cheese and roll up. Slice rolls into pieces about 1 and ½ inches wide and coat in flour mixed with a little cheese and pepper. Shake off excess. Place fish bits in an oiled shallow roasting pan and cover with sauteed onions. Season with salt and pepper, add milk and bake in oven preheated to 275°F for 4 hours, turning fish occasionally and adding olive oil if necessary. Remove from oven, top with more parsley and serve immediately.
