eeeeeww!! dutch people eat raw fish

[billErobreren]

is it made from beef or swine?? or a mix??

Swine liver, though I don't think most grind the liver while raw. Least, I never did, then again I don't want to get trichnosis.

Se her denne delikatesse! Nøgen leverpostej over rugbrød! The Dutch aren't the only ones that love this spread


I know Norwegians have a variation made out of cod liver. But I come from a pig farming family so I'm partial to the former.

You can pretty much find the same all the way from France to Norway (basically).

Gotta hand the Danes one thing: they have better rye bread than we do. This is because the Dutch began to abandon rye bread by the 15th century for (except for the poorer East and South where it remained, together with a kind of rye pancake, until the late 19th century) breads made out of imported wheat.

That was pretty much the whole basis under the Dutch economic expansion of the 15th to 18th century (particularly strong in the 16th and 17th century): the grain trade. Import, stapling and export so rye was soon seen as something for the very poor and not quite proper for the rest of society.

Oh yes... and that's why they are gutted, brined and frozen here before we eat them. That has only been done since the Late Middle Ages. Willem Beukelszoon is usually credited with it but there are some problems with that narrative as he was already dead by the time it began to be common practice.

There are disgusting stuff to eat all over the world.
At least they don't eat it alive.

Technically, they are raw but they have been completely cleaned. Think of it as a raw fish filet.
