Bolinho de Bacalhau is the granddaddy of bar foods served in boutequins all over Brazil. An exquisite deep-fried morsel that usually comes in a basket, cod fritters come in many variations. What makes this particular recipe so delicious and different are the egg whites mixed into the batter, which provide the fritters with a delicate, airy texture.When buying salt cod, try to find a piece that looks very meaty. Allow for a bit of planning for this recipe since you need to soak the cod for at least 24 hours, preferably 2-3 days.I often serve this as an hors d’oeurve with tartar sauce, or as a main course with a green salad on the side.Adapted from "The Brazilian Kitchen" by Leticia Moreinos Schwartz.
