Bacalaitos (Salted Cod Fritters)

Both of us love markets, as these are colourful places for photography, not to mention the best possible place to taste local chow. We eventually hit Mercat de la Boqueria, a hugely popular market along the touristy La Rambla, in time for pre-lunch appetisers.

 

The Bacalao, or Salted Cod, is a popular protein in Iberia. It finds itself into many various forms in Iberian cooking. I couldn't resist buying 2 sticks just for a few lovely chomps. They were crunchy, flavourful, has that slightly coarse texture from meshed up cod flesh and thankfully warm (newly fried)! Fried food always taste nice!
