Fish and brewis

Fish and brewis is a traditional Newfoundlander meal consisting of cod and hard, dry biscuits known as hardtacks. This rural dish was originally developed by fishermen on their long fishing trips, when the dish was made with salt fish, salt pork, and hardtack biscuits. Nowadays, the dish is typically served with scrunchions – fried chunks of salted pork rind. It can also be additionally flavored with pepper or a spoonful of molasses. Apart from scrunchions, fish and brewis pairs well with boiled peas or steamed vegetables.
