Step by Step guide

Step 1

Lightly sauté the peeled garlic in a dry skillet until fragrant. Pour the milk into a saucepan, add the garlic, and simmer on low heat for 30 minutes. Strain through a sieve — you should get about 900 ml of garlic-infused milk.

Step 2

Add 100 grams of salt to 900 ml of water. Heat over high heat for two minutes. Chill in the refrigerator.

Step 3

Place the cod fillets (pieces weighing about 150 grams) in a bowl, cover them with a salt solution, and let sit for 15 minutes. Then, transfer them to garlic-infused milk. Put the pot with the fish and milk over low heat, bring it to a temperature of 113°F, and let it sit for half an hour.

Step 4

Dice the carrots, parsnips, potatoes, and onions, place them in a bag, and steam or boil in water.

Step 5

Stir the hot vegetables with 20 grams of butter, hazelnut oil, 5 ml of lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and mustard. In a saucepan, combine the fish stock, cream, wine, the remaining butter, 5 ml of lemon juice, and season with salt to taste. Reduce the mixture by half.

Step 6

Place the cod on the plates, arrange the vegetables on the sides, drizzle with sauce, and garnish with cooked tagliatelle, tarragon leaves, pea shoots, and tarragon oil.
