Lutefisk, pronounced ''loot-a-FISK'', hearkens back to a day before refrigerators when being able to "put-up" food for storage was a necessity. The lye must be washed off thoroughly, using several changes of water before the fish is deemed reconstituted and fit for human consumption.<br>Even when the cod has been prepared correctly, when all precautions have been taken to ensure a good end product, younger members of the family tend to turn their noses up at such an "old country" dish.
