Line 1:

The article about [[Lutefisk]] claims: "Lutefisk (prounounced loo-te-fisk) is a well-known food of Norway and Sweden (prounounced loo-ta-fisk)which consists of white fish (normally Cod) soaked in lye as a preservative, then dried until it hardens. It is edible after multiple rinsings of water to remove the otherwise poisonous lye, and has a jelly-like consistency after washing."

'''Kushites''' or '''Kishites''' were an [[Afro-Asiatic]] mountain people of [[Mesopotamia]] from whom came [[Nimrod]]. Their first king was Etanna who reigned immediately after the end of Ice-Age deluges which submerged many costal communities. They left their name in mountainous areas from the [[Caucasus]] to as far as [[Afghanistan]]. According to some scholars they eventually migrated around the [[Oman]] & [[Yemen]] coasts of [[Puntians|Punt]] to [[Ethiopia]] in the 4th Millennium BC after being displaced by the [[Sumerian]]-speaking [[Asshur]]-[[Semite]]s from the east.

This is actually wrong. The fish is dried first, [[Stockfish]], and then soaked in lye or another base (like birch ash). After this it is rinsed in water. And another thing; it tastes delicious :)
