Recipe: Merluza A La Vascachake, Basque Style [edit]

Step 1

Place olive oil in 12inch cazuela and place over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until golden brown. Add clams, hake and white wine and continue cooking, shaking often, over medium heat. At 8 to 10 minutes, fish will exude a white and creamy substance. Add parsley and continue shaking cazuela to emulsify sauce. Season with salt and pepper and serve with cool hard cider or chacoli.
