Bacalao a la Vizcaína is a traditional dish from the Basque region of Spain, showcasing the rich flavors of Mediterranean cuisine. Its star component is salted cod, which is rehydrated and simmered in a hearty sauce made from olive oil, tomatoes, red bell peppers, onions, garlic, and sometimes chili peppers for a subtle heat. Olive oil adds healthy monounsaturated fats, while cod provides high-quality protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential nutrients like vitamin B12. The dish is often garnished with olives or capers for extra flavor. Although nutritious, care should be taken with the sodium content due to the salted cod and preserved ingredients. Served alongside boiled potatoes or hearty bread, Bacalao a la Vizcaína is a flavorful and satisfying example of Spain's culinary heritage.
