Baked Cod ( Bacalhau No Forno) image

This is a very typical salted cod fish recipe here in Portugal, you'll find it in about just any restaurant. This is very easy to prepare, as usually you will have to soak the salted cod,for 24 hrs, changing the water 3-4 times. That's a must with any kind of salted cod-fish. I usually do this and then freeze it, that way I'm always prepared. I usually do this recipe with fresh new small potatoes skin and all, it's wonderful. But if the potatoes are not new then by all means peel them. I hope you all enjoy this recipe.
