Callaloo and Salt Fish

A vibrant Caribbean dish where tender shredded salt cod mingles with garlicky, peppery callaloo greens, kissed with crispy bacon and the bright heat of scotch bonnet. The combination of briny fish, earthy greens, and aromatic herbs creates a deeply satisfying, soul-warming plate that tastes like island sunshine in a bowl.
