This is very much the traditional salt cod and chickpea salad from Portugal, which is very delicious for summer days. For those not too fond of salt cod, don’t worry as the taste isn’t strong since the cod is shredded. Also, instead of water, you can leave the cod in milk as it helps soften the strong taste of the salt cod. This recipe can easily be changed to your personal taste. You can add more or less onion, add black olives as a garnish, even use balsamic or wine vinegar in place of cider vinegar.
