Lutefisk is Norwegian cod marinated in caustic soda. It becomes a jelly
mass that tastes nothing. Of course, you have to wash it a lot to
remove the caustic soda and it is served with bacon, beans and ... a
lot of aquavit, which is a strong alcohol made from potatoes.
Lutefisk is a traditional dish mostly eaten during Christmas time. Some
people nearly makes it a cult. It doesn't taste bad, it tastes ...
nothing.
Its origin is said to come from the big fire of the town of Bergen, a
few centuries ago. Bergen was the hanseatic center where ships came all
over Europe to buy stock-fish, the Norwegian dried cod. During the
fire, many warehouses on the quays were burnt down, with the fish still
inside. Later, poor people from the town, came to salvage what they
could from the ruins. But wood ashes and water was very basic and the
fish became jelly-like, pretty much the way it is done now with caustic
soda.
... now, aren't we off-topic?
Cheers,
Michel
