The origin of the recipe is uncertain, but in its current form it is said to have originated during the second half of the 19th century in Bairro Alto, an old quarter of Lisbon, probably from older and related cod recipes with other names but similar cooking techniques. The name "Brás" (or sometimes Braz, Blaise in English) is supposedly the name of its creator.
