These are excellent value for the specific purpose - the first 250 gms went to a tortilla de bacalao, and the remaining 250gm will help stuff the pimientos de piquillo this weekend. The cod, being trimmings is not too dry and therefore you can probably get away with soaking overnight and being able to cook for lunchtime the next day, so that there is still a bit of bite to the taste. 24hrs might not be necessary. A lovely taste of Navarra.

Good value. No bones or skin. More refined than the salt fish I've been buying. Needs less soaking time than I gave it but it made lovely light fritters. I'll be back for more.

Excellent value maximum hydrating time of about 24 hours is sufficient. Must admit was surprised how thick these trimmings were. Excellent value.

Excellent for making Brandade de Morue. The fact that they are not as hard as wood makes the soaking process shorter. Very good quality .
