i've got more virility than i know what to do with; but if anyone else can use more, by all means cook up some of rasputin's secret soup. his daughter said he ate this dish every day. even grigory claimed it contributed to his own superhuman abilities.
the recipe has been borrowed from restaurants that served him in moscow and petrograd.
rasputin's codfish soup
2 sm whole codfish
1 c milk
1 c heavy whipping cream
salt
pepper
paprika and minced ginger usually went into his recipe.
clean codfish. remove head and cut fish into fillets. remove fish bones. cut fillets into 2" pieces and place in saucepan. add milk and whipping cream. place over medium heat and bring to scalding temperature. do not boil.
reduce heat and continue simmering until fish is done. season to taste with salt and pepper. ladle into soup bowls and serve hot.
makes about 1 quart, or 4 servings.
