Haddock for Christmas
Several dishes from Europe and Scandinavia feature salted or smoked haddock and rich sauces. German style haddock and potatoes is a good example. The meal pairs delicious salted haddock with hearty white potatoes, both items that can be stored during the long European winter.
The recipe calls for alternate layers of potatoes, fish, and onions. Eggs are beaten and folded together with sour cream, pepper, and mace, then poured over the potatoes. The dish is then sprinkled with breadcrumbs and additional butter and baked slowly.
Haddock is also very popular smoked in Europe and Scandinavia where a famous product is finnan haddie. The real finnan haddie consists of North Sea haddock which has been gutted, split, and smoked. In Scotland, it is traditionally served at breakfast or lunch but usually not as the main course of the meal.
