I've never had fish stew. What kinds of fish go well in it? Is it kind of like a beef or chicken stew as far as the other ingredients? Thick or thin sauce?

Well, I'm not actually sure of the fish but I think it is cod. It is the dried fish that Italians make, called bacala, or something like that. I'm not Italian so I'm not sure how it's spelled.

I just put onion, celery, potato, a bit of tomato juice, olive oil, parsley and black pepper in it. The fish is dried and salted, so you don't add salt. You have to soak it in water for a day before you make it, to turn it into fish again from the dry stuff.

Trust me, it's not really worth the bother. I was just out of good stuff and I had it in the fridge. In fact, I just ordered pizza. Maybe we'll have the stew tomorrow!

Pizza goes better with football anyway! Nobody asks for fish stew while watching the game.
