Disgusting fish dish served anywhere Scandinavian grandmothers lurk, in the U.S. usually on holidays or other "special occasions." Also makes a frequent appearance on smorgasbords. Best described as fish Jello. Tastes bad and smells worse. Most acidic dish known to man (no joke). Dried codfish is reconstituted in lye (breaking down proteins/any structure), "washed out" with water for a couple of days, and boiled into oblivion. White fish served with a white sauce often on a white plate. Yum! In Minnesota the main event at "lutefisk feeds" organized by the Sons of Norway to benefit the local Lutheran church.
Lena's grandchild: Grandma is busy preparing lutefisk for Christmas dinner again.
Lena's daughter: What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

Get the lutefisk mug.
Minnesotan for casserole, almost always combining cream of something soup and canned vegetables with a significant source of starch (e.g. noodles, tater tots). Mystery meat and French fried onions might be included if you're having a good day. Nothing to do with a hot chick.
