With an abundance of fresh Callaloo (aka spinach or chorai bhagi) in my garden last summer and with the many requests for a version of the classic Jamaican Callaloo With Saltfish (salted cod) without the saltifsh, I've been playing around with a few variations.

In our household it is prepared for breakfast once a week, either Friday or Saturday mornings. I have a cousin who is so in love with ackee she could eat it every day. However I feel like ackee and fried dumpling is a special breakfast, and having it every week makes it not as special. So in an…
