 A dwarven staple is lutefisk. This is a dried and salted fish cured in lye. This preserves the fish for an extended period. To become edible again it must be soaked for five to six days in cold water which is changed daily. The saturated lutefisk is then soaked in an unchanged solution of cold water and lye for an additional two days. This causes the fish to swell and assume a jelly-like consistency. It is still not edible. The final treatment is soaking the fish for another four to six days with daily water changes. It is now suitable for cooking. Some people swear by it, some swear at it.

 Funerary rites:
-Deceased dwarves are disposed of through aquamation. The body is dissolved in a stone (or sometimes metal) vessel filled with water and lye which in some cases is heated. The resultant green-brown tinted liquid is added to the compost. The body’s bones survive and can easily be crushed by hand into a white-colored powder, which can be returned to the family.

 The lye is made either by heating quicklime and water, or through wood ashes that are soaked in a barrel or tub of water for several weeks and then filtered. Lye is usually stored in ceramic or clay containers.
