Saltfish and Goat Cheese Flammekueche

It's time for this years 2017 CFE’s International Saltfish Blogger Recipe Challenge and I'm so grateful to be involved in both the entree and appetizer categories. I wanted to to create an appetizer that was quick and simple but also had delicious and distinct flavor profiles. These Saltfish and Goat Cheese Flammekueche are absolutely worthy of company dinners and also to whip up in no time at all when friends drop by.

You'll need to soak the fish and rinse a few times to rehydrate and to remove some of the saltiness. I began in the morning and did 3 rinses and it was fine by dinner. *Read the package directions. You will also notice the fish plumps up after soaking! Since it's wild caught you know your getting the absolute best quality fish out there!
