It’s not a great list, but alot has been left out.
We also have, sheep and cabbage, lye-fish, whale, and blood pudding boiled in milk.
You know what, yeah I’ll go get a Döner.
Luckily we are a pretty multicultural society at least in the cities and everyone has brought their delicious foods over. Shame that were so sensitive to spice that some people think salt is to spicy :D
I saw the sheep and cabbage, and I was expecting more of a stew, but all the pics looks like meat cut a minimum amount to fit in the pot with a quartered cabbage head tossed in. I mean, I’m sure I’d still like it as I like lamb (never found mutton here) and cabbage, but they don’t really seem to have gone for any kind of enticing presentation.
The lye part of the lutefisk doesn’t turn me off so much, but the descriptions calling it jelly-like don’t make my mouth water. Especially as it has the bones still in it if I recall correctly.
Whale has always intrigued me, but I feel I’ve heard more bad than good about the taste, plus I’d probably feel really bad about trying it.
It is literally just sheep and cabbage in layers in a big pot boiled with whole black peppercorns until your whole neighbourhood smells like farts. Served as a slop in a soup bowl.
The lutefisk is jelly like, doesn’t always have bones and the taste is a bit weird since it’s very base-y (as opposed to acidic Wich is more prevalent in most foods). it is also served with a bunch of different condiments and sides depending on where in the country you are. My favorites are: side of mashed peas and boiled potatoes, on the fish i put bacon bits and it’s liquid fat, some brown cheese, and syrup.
These two are actually in my top ten dishes and I’d be down to have them whenever, but it’s generally sheep/cabbage in lamb season, and lutefisk is a Christmas dish.
Whale is like having a steak, but the cow only ate fish for its whole life. It’s not great but it’s also not terrible in an interesting way.

This has been very enlightening! Thanks for all your comments!
Y’all still eat whale?
Not really part of the generally menu as much as it where in the olden days, but you can still get it in most frozen fish isles.
I hate to say this, but the delicious foods you’re getting in the cities, have mostly been watered down to suit the Norwegian palate 😂
