It was how bacalao a la vizcana  (Mexican style cod) was born,  he adds. There is another type of cod distributed in Canada . It is a fish different from the Norwegian one and that is also commercialized in Mexico. This cod goes through the same process, that is, it is dried and salted just like the one from Norway.

This bacalao fish recipe is popular during the holidays. The salted cod is simmered in a savory broth with tomatoes, ancho peppers, and potatoes -it's a family-favorite Mexican recipe! Christmas and New Year holidays are a time filled with family traditions and a lot of food.
