When in Spain we see "bacalao" generally used to describe salt
cod. Probably correctly "bacalao seco". Is there a word in spanish to describe fresh cod, something that I'm not even sure I can recall seeing on sale? Dont think i've seen haddock either, although it has a spanish name. -- Mike Reid Wasdale-Thames path-London-Photos "http://www.fellwalk.co.uk" <-- you can email us@ this site Eat-walk-Spain "http://www.fell-walker.co.uk" <-- dontuse@ all, it's a spamtrap |

Cod was supremely important to the Basques and the Spanish hundreds of years ago, so much so that the English navy destroyed the Spanish fishing fleet in the late 1500's. Mark Kurlansky's book, _Cod_, is a great read and fascinating history. The final section is "Six Centuries of Cod Recipes," most of which are for salt cod, but not all. -aem |

I understand the word for fresh cod in Spain is still "bacalao", but your observation is correct: it's not used in Spain traditionally and I'm not aware anyone has started importing it. My understanding is that traditionally, Spain's supply comes from a processing facility somewhere in the Baltic Sea. Neil |

"Bacalao" is generic cod. If fresh cod has to be specified, it is "bacalao fresco" (masculine), AFAIK. Victor |

>In Italian cod is merluzzo. Is there a Spanish word similar? Bacalao is >baccala', so it would seem the fish might be as similar in name. Yes, but "merluza" in Spain is hake (Merluccius merluccius), a relative of the cod and found everywhere, fresh, probably Spains favourite fish? That's "whiting" in US I understand, which in UK is "silver hake" (uncommon?) while "whiting" in UK is Merlangius merlangus, another close relative which is "merlan" in Spain and "merlano" in Italy. There is also "bacaladilla" in Spain, the blue whiting, although i've not seen it there. I wont start on the white blueting..... Its rather interesting that fresh cod and haddock abound in UK, while in Spain hake takes that role, (all thee and all the above being related members of the "gadidae" cod family) and in spain salt cod is common while rare in UK (where I think it would be called stockfish?).

[snip] Kurlansky's "Cod" affirms that hake is the fresh fish substitute of choice for cod in Spain, Basque country and Portugal. He says stockfish is dried, but not salted, cod. Here's a modern recipe for stockfish, via Nigeria, from the book: Wash the stockfish in hot water and soak it five minutes. Then boil it for several hours until it is soft. Then add goat meat. When the goat meat is cooked add eguzi [seeds of the green squash known in Nigeria as melon]. Add onions and minced ukazi [an herbal leaf]. Add crayfish. Then stir in ugvo [a thickener made from ground seeds, which have been cooked for hours until soft]. -attributed to Joy Okori, an Ibo now living in the U.S. I don't think this is a candidate for '30-minute Meals.' -aem |

Baccala' and Stoccafissa are two different versions. Baccala' is salted and comes in wooden boxes and is soaked from that state. Stoccafissa is dried and works great as a cricketbat I hear, until it is soaked. In posh fish shops, one can buy either already soaked and cleaned and ready to cook. |

The difference between their going to a restaurant and your cooking for them is service. They have only to sit and eat. If they want the convenience, they should be willing to pay for it. I do such events and I charge a considerably more substantial rate than that. I've also been doing it for a couple decades, so I can demand and get better prices, but I think you're still working too hard for too little money. My customers have several choices: 1) they provide the food for a menu we've agreed on they and pay me an hourly rate which I have estimated and given them a range for. I do this because people often want to talk about the food and details afterward, and it's my time they're taking. They pay for that. 2) I bring the food for which they reimburse me and I charge a price for the whole event based on estimated time from start to finish. Again, with an estimate of how much non-productive time I expect. 3) I design the menu, shop for the food, prepare and serve it, and clean up afterward. I won't even consider doing this for less than $200USD for myself at the end of the event. And that assuming it's for a single evening for no more than 4 people. Four people should expect to spend between $75 and $100 per person at a minimum, depending on several factors. I've billed people as much as $300 per person for extraordinary meals with exotic ingredients. Admittedly, they're rare, but they do come up. |

Hake is hard to find here, although recently Whole Foods has started offering it, although only filets, not the steaks you find more typically for merluza in Spain. Neil |

In the meantime, I had to do something in line with what the previous chef had done, although I raised prices. I was asked to do sample menus to choose from. They are priced as "simple" and extended and are priced differently. They also are based on cheaper foods, rigorously in season. The 130 euros comes to $152 these days which explians why I need money. (that includes the fees for changing money as well as the difference in value) |

But it's not about hardware. If it were, they'd stop and pick up something on the way home. But what do you think is worth more, the tablecloth or the cook's skill? Pastorio |

Local restaurants serve almost exclusively local food, and even then, those that work best for a restaurant. That excludes many many dishes. Having a personal chef in allows you to eat what is not in restaurants. People sometimes get a very skewed idea about a regional cuisine when they eat only in restaurants. |

Actually rent (or mortgage) falls under "cost of occupancy" and they're typically not among the biggest items unless it's a glitzy, urban, fashionable place. The major costs are what are called "prime cost" in foodservice. They're "Cost of Materials" (sometimes called "cost of goods sold")and "Cost of labor" (or "staffing"). Between them, they can account for as much as 65% of a successful restaurant's operating costs. Everything else is rendered in single-digit percentages. Fast food skews this somewhat, but the principles maintain. When I do "remote catering" or feeding at sites other than mine, customers are paying for what I know, what I do, the equipment I bring to bear, and the fact that it's to suit their sense of convenience. They're paying to be treated like aristocracy. I'm more than happy to serve that sense, but it ain't comin' cheap. The time spent cooking is only a small part of the process. Consulting with them, gathering ingredients and materials, mise en place, prep and cooking, teardown and return all contribute to the cost. Materials are often less than 15% of the cost. Labor often 60% or more all by itself. Pastorio |

It sure is a problem at home parties, anyway. I'm pretty sure I could find someone at extra cost if they really wanted it. These customers will be folks renting country villas in Umbria, no black tie involved. |
