Ingredients

Method
Nutaaq:registered: cod
Liberally salt the flesh of the cod and let it sit to lightly cure for 25 minutes. After the fish has cured, gently wipe all the excess salt from the outside of the cod fillets with a towel. Set aside until ready to use.
Smoked Fish Broth
Roast fish bones in oven until golden brown. Add the bones, water and apple juice together in a
large saucepan and bring to the boil. Once boiling, remove from heat and add the kombu. Infuse for 30 minutes whilst cooling and then strain. Once cooled, mix in the egg white and slowly heat to clarify the liquor. Pass through muslin. Finish by seasoning to taste with white soy sauce.
To serve
Gently BBQ the cod portions until the fish is cooked through. Allow to rest for 3 minutes.
Once rested, place fish in a bowl and garnish with the guanciale, toasted nori, bone marrow, spring onion and pickled sea weed. Bring the clarified fish broth to the boil and pour around the fish and over the ingredients, making sure to soak the nori and submerge the bone marrow and guanciale.
