After posting the recipe video for this on the Cooking Channel, I obtained an e-mail from a viewer saying “that’s nothing however saltfish buljol”. Let’s take a look at this remark for a quick minute earlier than we get to the precise recipe. NO Completely NOT! Sure, there are substances on this recipe which can mimic our beloved saltifsh buljol, however once I assume buljol I need the important thing ingredient or ‘star’ of the present to be salted fish. In a great saltfish buljol the salad itself is constructed across the salted fish, as you need that to shine by means of. In my recipe beneath you’ll discover that the salted fish is just used for added texture and taste.

This is really easy you’ll surprise why you’ve by no means made this earlier than. Mainly all you must do is wash, peel and chop the greens. Then assemble in a bowl, high with the olive oil and lemon juice and toss. You’ll discover that I didn’t use any salt because the residual salt from teh saltfish will probably be sufficient to stability issues.
Ideas.
1. Should you’re involved in regards to the uncooked warmth of the peppers, don’t use as a lot as I did and take a look at to not use any seeds. That is the place most of that warmth resides.
