      COD OVER ROASTED GARLIC MAYONNAISE

      for the mayonnaise, roast a head of garlic wrapped in aluminum foil so that it does not stick to the cod.

      The cod is confit.

      On top of the cod, orange zest, pomegranate and watercress, sliced green olives

        This dish sounds like an absolute flavor bomb! 😋 The roasted garlic mayonnaise with confit cod must create such a rich, savory base. Topping it with orange zest, pomegranate, watercress, and green olives adds a burst of freshness and tang – the perfect contrast to the richness of the fish! 🌿🍊🌱

        I can already imagine the wonderful balance of flavors. Definitely trying this! 👌

        P.S. Dear, Why didn’t you submitted this for the #platingchallenge? 🧐

          The idea of using roasted garlic mayonnaise as a base for the cod confit is a very tasty way to add depth without being too intense. I really like how the orange zest, pomegranate and watercress add freshness and visual contrast, you can tell there is intention in each element.
          One question: how did you manage to keep the cod in such a nice shape when you confit it? Sometimes it falls apart a bit and yours looks whole and juicy.
          A little tip: if you want to further enhance the natural sweetness of the roasted garlic, you could add a few drops of lemon or mild vinegar to the mayonnaise, that also helps balance with the fat in the fish.

          Thanks for sharing it with the community.☺️

                ¡El talento que tienes para tentarme con una cosa distinta cada vez, Mercedes! 😄
                Hoy es bacalao, mañana quién sabe… pero lo cierto es que siempre logras sorprender.
                Este plato tiene de todo: técnica, sabor, y un toque de frescura con esos berros y la ralladura de naranja que seguro despiertan el paladar. La mahonesa de ajos asados… un acierto rotundo. Y esas aceitunas y granada encima le dan un contraste visual y gustativo que ya quisiera cualquier menú de fiesta.
                ¿Sueles confitar el bacalao de esta manera o fue experimento del día? 👀
