- Separately, cook the cod in a pot with enough water until it boils.
- Once it has reached a boil, remove from the heat and let the fish cool without removing it from the pot.
- Once cold, drain, remove the skin and bones, and shred the cod.
- Crush the shredded cod along with the oil where the garlic was fried, then add the warm milk to the blender glass along with a little salt and pepper.
- If you don’t have a blender, you can use any food processor or chop everything you have on hand. The result should be fluffy dough.
