Klippfisk

Norwegian name for salted and dried cod (Gadus morhua) made briefly as follows. Typically, it is bled, headed with a so-called round cut and gutted, split and cleaned to leave a piece of the backbone at the tail to give strength. The fish are stacked in layers with solid salt, eventually taking up salt to about 18% by weight, while the saturated brine formed is allowed to drain away.
