Tear the desalted cod into large pieces and blot away excess moisture with paper towels.
Finely chop the onions, crush the garlic, and chop the parsley.
Soften the onions and garlic in half the olive oil for 8 minutes.
Add the anchovy fillets and parsley, and stir for 2 minutes.
Coat the cod pieces in flour and arrange them in the pot, then add the milk, remaining olive oil, black pepper, and a little salt.
Cook Baccala alla Vicentina over very low heat for 2.5-3 hours, shaking the pot from time to time.
When the fish has absorbed the sauce and flakes apart, transfer it to a warm serving platter.
💡 Tip: Use ready-desalted cod; if you soak dried fish at home the timing changes, while this recipe's minutes are reliable for the prepared product.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve Baccala alla Vicentina hot with optional soft polenta or plain cornbread.
