JAMAICAN SALTFISH FRITTERS (STAMP AND GO)
A popular Jamaican appetizer. Just stamp them out in the kitchen, take some for the road and go! Saltcod can be prepared the day before for a quicker cook time. These are also good served with a spicy dipping sauce.

Steps:
- Soak the cod in cold water overnight to rehydrate it and remove excess salt (or see Cook's Note).

- Heat 1/4 inch of oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat. When the oil is hot, drop rounded spoonfuls of batter into the skillet. Fry on each side until golden brown and crisp, about 5 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels and serve hot.
