BACALAITO

During my first trip to Puerto Rico I encountered this little tasty treat thanks to the guidance of some friends who are also island natives. We would usually get them by the beach in a beautiful place called Pinonnes where the beach stretched out before you with almond tress growing everywhere and food vendors have the tastiest fried treats like Bacalaito and Acapuria served up next to ice cold coconuts that they open in front of you. The sun, the air, the good food and the cold coconuts makes for the perfect tropical getaway.

Now, I’d like to share with you a little piece of my trip as I did with Josh. I wanted to share a little home made taste of Puerto Rico with him right here in our kitchen and so made some Bacalaito or Fried Cod Fish Fritters
