Ingredients

• 1.5 lb Dogfish
• 4 slices Day-old bread
• 6 cloves Garlic
• 1 cup Cilantro
• 1/3 cup Olive oil
• 2 tbsp White wine vinegar
• 6 cups Water
• 2 Bay leaf

Steps

1. Pound the garlic and cilantro with salt into a vivid green paste.
2. Simmer the paste in olive oil and water with bay 15 minutes into a fragrant broth.
3. Add the vinegar; the Alentejo touch is a bracing sourness.
4. Poach the dogfish steaks 8 minutes until just opaque and firm.
5. Toast the bread slices and lay one in each deep bowl.
6. Ladle the soup over the bread and top with the fish; eat immediately, before the bread dissolves.
