This depends on the cut and firmness of the stockfish, the flesh can either be boiled for a short while with the beef or it can be added to the soup/ stew early so it can soften before the soup is fully ready.
In case of other cuts like the whole cod, osan and cut cut, you can either
boil in water for 20 minutes , then leave to soak in the water for a few hours
Boil with a pressure pot
Soak in cold water overnight
