Rakafisk from Norway

This is premium rakafisk from Aal, Hallingdal, made by Embrik Gjengedal, master rakafisk maker!

The fish is freshwater trout. Is is cleaned thouroughly immediately after it is catched, salted and placed in an airtight container in a cool place. After some weeks, it is ready for eating. Served raw with boiled potatoes, mild and chopped leek, strong aquavit and chilled beer. Homemade flatbread and rumme (sour cream) are optionals.

Cool food for a Christmas party.
