What it is

Dried cod or Salt cod whipped with olive oil into a creamy, mousse-like spread.

Taste translation

If you like creamy dips or pâté — imagine that but made from whipped dried or salt cod. Savory, silky and addictive.

Zen's note

This is Venezia’s soul food. Looks simple, tastes incredible. Every bàcaro has it and every version is slightly different. The best ones are silky smooth.
