• 1/4 teaspoon whole allspice
• 1/4 teaspoon whole cloves
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg

1. Prepare Potato Salad Vinaigrette: Using a mandoline or food processor fitted with a 2-millimeter slicing blade, slice potatoes across width as thinly as possible.
2. Place in a large bowl and wash in cold, running water until water runs clear.
3. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
4. Add potatoes, bring back to a boil, and remove from heat.
5. Drain in a colander.
6. In a medium bowl, toss potatoes with red onion and reserve.
7. Whisk remaining ingredients in a small bowl to form a vinaigrette.
8. Pour over potatoes and onions, and toss to combine.
9. Cover and refrigerate up to 2 days.
10. Prepare Cod: Soak hickory chips in water for an hour.
11. Meanwhile, combine brine ingredients in a medium saucepan.
12. Bring to a boil, strain into a ceramic or glass roasting pan, and chill.
13. When cool, marinate cod fillets about 15 minutes at room temperature.
14. Make a stove top smoker with that big old pot you've been meaning to throw away.
15. (Or line a good pot with aluminum foil to keep it from aging quickly.)
16. Place chips on bottom of pot and a rack above them.
17. Cover pot, place on a burner over high heat.
18. When chips start smoking, place fish on rack, cover, and cook over moderate heat 10 minutes, or until just cooked through.
19. Transfer fish to a platter, cover with plastic wrap and chill.
20. To serve, line 6 serving plates with a thin layer of Potato Salad Vinaigrette.
21. Cover each with a chilled fish fillet and serve.
