OK, here's one sort of question that pops into my head, when I read about a traditional food preparation technique like this one. Who had the brilliant idea to do it, the first time? Like, someone was sitting, staring at a cod, bored by cod, cod, and more cod, and they had the little light bulb go on, "I know! I'll soak this fish in lye, dry it out, and make it tasteless, with a weird texture! Then, I'll serve it over and over again, until it becomes a tradition."
Ya know?
