For the cod confit:

For the mayonnaise:
1.    In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Set aside.

For the bruschetta:
1.    Drizzle some olive oil over the toasted bread, and season with salt and pepper. 
2.    Shred the cod and place it on top of the toasted bread. Add some lemon mayonnaise to each bruschetta and some capers, no more than four or five to each toast. 
3.    After that, cut in half the turnips and the cherry tomatoes. Place them on every bruschetta in an aesthetically pleasing way.

Finally, top with some mustard cress and drizzle again with some olive oil.
