We also use lye to make whats called lutefisk here in Norway, its dried cod thats been soaking lye for a certain amount of time to soften it again, then soaked in water to remove the lye. Good with bacon and potatoes, supposedly, but I never developed a taste for it, regardless me being norwegian.
Norway! It's awesome to see all the countries represented on this site! There should be a post requesting anyone from a country outside the U.S. to post what country they are in. So far, in addition to Norway, I know of South Africa, Australia, and Great Britain. I would love to see the complete list. I'll go ahead and post the request.
