This looks like it was originally bacalao, made with salted cod instead of fresh. Soak the salt cod in water for two days, changing the water every 12 hours, then soak for another 12 hours in water with enough instant dry milk to turn the water blue (or you can use skim or descremada milk). The water removes most of the salt, the milk takes the bite out of what salt is left, giving the cod a soft but deep and robust flavor. Traditional Christmas dish in parts of Spain, Mexico, and such. Can also add a dried chile arbol if you are so inclined.
