The Source Recipe
The original text of the recipe is as follows:

If you want to make good stockfish. Let it boil as long as veal and let it boil at a simmer. Pour off the broth and take out the fish and pick it apart well. Then take a pan and put lard in it, let it warm up, then place the stockfish into the butter and let it heat up in there. Take ginger and saffron and the broth of the fish and color it with that, pour it over the stockfish into the pan and let it boil up once or three times. That way it is well done.
