NASA uses Windows? Oh great. If Apollo 13 went off course today the manual

re-install new ones.

I realize that this *BEGS* for a crosspost into net.food.* somewhere, but
I can't see an appropriate group.

used to dig it down in the garden. Grave, means in Norwegian to dig. Lax
means salmon. So imagine a salmon cut to slices, spiced with spicy spices,
dug down in the ground to rot, and then served for dinner. It tastes like
nothing else, except the vulva mentioned earlier in this thread.
Yeeeaaaccckk, I'm puking!!!!

Here's your recipe:
gravad lax (salmon)
-------------------
1 kilogram salmon, preferably the middle piece of a 2-3 kg fish
2-3 tsp white pepper corns
1/2 dl salt
almost 1 dl sugar
a lot (2 bunches of) dill
preparation:
cut the salmon in 2 filets remove the bone but keep the skin. Dry the
pieces
with some kitchen paper. Crush the peppercorns and mix with salt and
sugar.
Put some of the saltmix in a deep platter together with some chopped
dill.
Put one of the salmonpieces skin down in the platter, add half of the
salt
mixture and a lot of dill. Put the other piece on top skinside up
meatside
against meatside).and put rest of the salt mix and dill on top.
Cover the dish with aluminium or plastic foil and refrigerate for 2
days.
Turn it around some times during this time (when it starts "watering")

I thought that was how lutefisk was made. What's the difference?
Zadig Galbaras
at stake.
Gravlax is dug down to rot.
The fish salted down in layers herring. Taste really good. If it's smoked
too, it's even better. We don't let it ferment, just ripen a bit. Mmmmmm,
gooooood :-)
BTW what is "garum"? It's not in my little dictionary.

lutefisk I'm pretty sure is made with lye. I don't think it's made
with salmon, though.
There is also some Scandinavian fish dish that is essentially made
from layering fish and salt in barrels and letting it ferment. I
think I have a recipe for it somewhere, don't feel like digging it
up.
If it's rotten fish you want, there's always garum.

Neither would any of the other Norwegians I know.
No wonder my grandfather (who was born in Norway) didn't get along
with the Sons of Norway and other such Norwegian-Americans.
Here we thought it was about politics. But maybe it was merely about
inedible substances masquerading as food.

Hmm, sounds like it would be an ideal substance to put into one of
those holy water sprinklers when the priest isn't looking, eh?

start puking. Why can't people just eat plain food? Is there a death wish

Well, we could arrange for some other unpleasant bodily function, I
suspect.

I'm just trying to stay on-topic for this newsgroup. Sometimes I fear
I may have been too tasteful, but what do I know? I'm not a long-term
denizen of this group or others devoted to the same subject.

Well, this is certainly the right newsgroup for it.

Define "plain food".

With very few exceptions, we're all necrophages. About the only thing
that's alive in what we eat is yeasts and molds.

For some strange reason it's rather popular here at Christmas-time.
Btw, the correct spelling for the other version of rotten fisk is
gravlaks and not gravelax.

I suspect that the former is Norwegian and the latter is French, or
something like that.
Can't be sloppy about rotten fish taxonomy, you know.

I like gravelax cuz it reminds me of x-lax, which I think would have
similar effect.

Ah yes, I was meaning to say "speaking of food, this reminds me of one
memory eating scene in _Pink Flamingoes_" but I didn't really have the
ideal opening until now.

<URL:http://www.ecst.csuchico.edu/~durian/> says it all about durian,
i guess, from the viewpoint of someone who actually likes the damned
stuff. Also check images/nodurian.gif below the above URL for a
picture of a "No Durians Allowed" sign in Singapore.
<URL:http://www.kibo.com/kibofood/durian_wafer.html> also has some

taste.
