SUMMER SUPPER: SHETLAND COD WITH SALSA VERDE
For me, salsa verde is a the epitome of summer Mediterranean dining and its punchiness can pep up most fish dishes. I served the cod with the salsa verde with a chicory, roast squash and pomegranate salad with kefir dressing.
Tips– The length of cooking time for white fish will depend on its thickness. Perfectly cooked fish will flake and break up when a fork is taken to it. It should not be dry so make sure to watch carefully when cooking!
Food focus– Basil is full of antioxidant flavonoids which protect against oxidative and antibacterial oils.
