Fish Stew with California Raisins

1. Place dried fish in a large container of cold water and soak overnight. The next day, remove fish; drain and discard liquid. In a large pot, cover fish with fresh water. Bring to boil; reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes; drain and discard water. Repeat this step 2 more times; draining and discarding water each time. With a fork, flake fish, discarding any bones, and set aside.
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat olive oil; add onion and garlic. Cook for 1 minute. Add tomatoes, flaked fish and bay leaf; cook 2 minutes more. Stir in broth; heat and simmer gently for 5 minutes more. Stir in parsley, capers; jalapeño, raisins and potato; simmer gently for 5 minutes more. Add salt and pepper to taste.
3. Serve immediately with extra virgin olive oil to drizzle at the table.
