Make the fish: Pat the cod as dry as possible, then slice lengthwise into eight strips about 1 inch thick. Put rice flour on a plate and season with salt. Lightly dust the cod with the rice flour mixture and shake off any extra. Crinkle foil over a plate to make a quick drying rack; set the cod on top.
