Notes: on Cod, soak in water overnite, change water several times,
rinse and drain. To determine if cod has soaked enough; taste soaking
water. The cod is soaked if the mix is slightly salty and the fish  has
plumped up to nearly double it's original size. Soaking cod too  long
results in fish fiber with no taste. In a large saucepan, Mix  together
the soaked and drained salt cod, water and milk. put the,  bay leaf,
thyme and parsley. in a 4 inch square piece of cheesecloth  and tie it
together with string. Place the spice bag in the cod,  water, milk,
mix. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low and cook  for 15 minutes.
Add the fresh cod and cook for 5 minutes more. Drain  and remove the
fish to a large bowl to cool, discarding the flavoring  ingredients.
Flake fish with a fork and set aside. In a large  skillet, melt the
butter until sizzling, add the celery and chopped  onion and cook until
the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add  the cooked vegetables
to the flaked fish, add the egg and mix to  coat, then add the green
onions, chives, parsley, cayenne pepper,  tabasco sauce, dried mustard,
worcestershire sauce, mayonnaise, lemon  juice, bread crumbs, and salt
and pepper to taste, Form the mixture  into 6 to 8, 3" to 4" patties,
1/2 cup of mix makes 3" patties. Place  on a baking sheet and cover and
refrigerate for 1 hour. If the  mixture is too wet, add more
breadcrumbs as needed. When ready to  cook, whisk together the egg yolk
and milk in a small bowl. In a  small shallow pie plate combine the
cornmeal and flour. Dip a codcake  into the flour mixture, then in the
egg and milk mixture and finally  dredge them in the remaining
breadcrumbs. Repeat with the remainder  of the codcakes. In a large
skillet melt together the butter and the  oil. Fry half of the codcakes
in the skillet about 3-4 minutes per  side. MSN, the results should be
fairly brown. Drain the fishcakes on  paper towels. Repeat with the
remainder of the cakes. Serve warm with  the Jalapeno Tartar Sauce and
fresh lemon or lime wedges. MSN= 2/3  cup of the mix = 4" patties.  ~--
