Ingredient appreciation — what makes Lutefisk special

What sets Lutefisk apart is the handling of cloudberry. In lesser versions this is treated as a background note. Here it's central and the gamey and earthy result shows it. I've started buying it to cook with at home after this experience.

Norwegian coastal geography shaped a cuisine centred on preserved and fresh fish. The a seafood restaurant on the fjord atmosphere was right for this kind of food. I had cloudberry cream as recommended and it matched well. If you want to understand what makes this cuisine distinctive, Lutefisk is the place to start.
