Baccalá

Grandpa Pete’s twist on an Italian classic. A traditional Christmas Eve favorite in Italy—it’s great as an appetizer or as a main course. Baccalá is a Serro family favorite every Christmas Eve and we are passing on our tradition to you! We hope that you enjoy it just as much as we do!

Fine sea salt
4 slices baguette, toasted
