LL> Tim. You are talking about a guy who loves eating fermented rotten
 LL> fish. Herring, in particular.

   Actually that's only a few northerners here, that eat that disgusting crap.
I've tried it once -- it took about a month to get rid of the awful smell in
the house. Never again.

   The rest of Sweden prefer the herring either fried or pickled. Fried AND
then pickled is also OK.

   BTW, surstr”mming is made exactly like the popular (in Asian cuisine) fish
sauce. I've suggested to the people up there in Lappland that they should
switch over to making fish sauce -- high quality, Swedish fish sauce could be
as popular as Absolut Vodka -- but I'm still waiting for a reply...
