O.k., here I am, the proud owner of a two pound plank which is
allegedly the flank of a former fish. What to do with it?
Unfortunately, Kurlansky isn't much help. His book is liberally laced
with all kinds of historic recipes, but most of them are bare bones and
unappealing. I can go to the internet, of course. But, I thought I'd
check here first. Anybody ever worked with this stuff?


My husband would kick me out of the house, unless he'd already run
away screaming. Around here it's called lutefisk.

You have to soak it in cold water (often changed cold water) and then
I think in milk. Finally, it's baked or broiled in the oven and
served with melted butter or a cream sauce.

All the above is by hearsay. The rest of the hearsay has convinced me
I'm never going near the stuff.

Often taunted by trout. Almost entirely harmless. Really.
