It has minimal nutritious values as it lost most of its nutrients and protein after being soaked in lye for days.
FYI, lye (potassium hydroxide/sodium hydroxide) is an industrial-strength chemical used for cleaning drains, killing plants, powering batteries and manufacturing biodiesel. Contact with lye can cause chemical burns, permanent scarring, blindness and other serious sicknesses.
Lutefisk is also a high risk factor for pancreatic cancer.
Ha most Norwegian grown ups that I know know have it more times of the year than just Christmas time and its not lutefisk isn't jellyfish mind you haha
Never tasted it untill I was 40. But now I'm a great afn. Most grown up Norwegians have it at least once around XMas. The good thing about it is you cover the whole thing with bacon bits and bacon fat, potatoes, mustrad and pea stew ... and most imortant, have Aquavit (Strong Snaps) and XMas beer with it.
You will have completely forgotten about the jelly fish by then.
Eh that be a good song there you singin'. LOL, good lord, this was funny.
