                         -----BAKED COD, CALAMATA STYLE-----
    3      pounds        Salt cod
                         Water as needed
                         Flour for dipping

 Cut cod into small pcs.  Skin it, and soak overnight in enought wter to cover,
changing 2 or 3 times. Remove from water; take out bones; rinse and dry fish
well.  Dip in flour, shaking off excess, and fry in hot oil until golden.  In
same oil, saute onions until they are soft but not brown. Put them in wide pot,
together with oil from the pan and any of the 1 1/2 c. oil not used in the
frying.  Add tomatoes and pepper. Simmer for 30 - 45 min., or until onions
dissolve. Add codfish (& /1/2 c. hot water if needed), cover the pot, and cook
for 10 min., until liquid is absorbed and only the oil remains.
 
   NOTE:  This dish is usually made in the summer, when ripe tomatoes are readily
 available
