About Baccalà alla Livornese
Baccalà alla Livornese is a salt-cod dish associated with Livorno in Tuscany. This home-style GialloZafferano version includes potatoes in a sauce of peeled tomatoes, onion and garlic.
Cod supplies the savoury fish flavour, balanced by tomato and onion. White wine adds an aromatic note, while parsley gives the finished dish a fresh herbal lift.
Flour-coated pieces of fish sit in the tomato sauce with soft potato cubes. The cod remains in tender pieces rather than being mashed, and the recipe specifies serving it hot.
