Soak the cod the day before to ensure it is at the optimal level of salt for spiritual cod. In the first 6 hours, change the water 3 times every 2 hours, and then let it soak for another 12 hours. Chop the garlic, onion, and carrot very finely in brunoise. Sauté the vegetables and add the drained cod. Incorporate the bread and then the milk. Let everything cook together until it reaches a thick consistency.
