Merry Christmas from a Swedish American. I love lutefisk and so does my Mom.Thank you for the video, and mentioning Ingebretsons in Minnesota. I grew up about an hour away.
I inherited my great grandmother's spinning wheel. The foot pedal was repaired with the lid of a herring box!
I'm sure Molly Yeh made a version on one of her "Girl Meets Farm"" episodes, she has definitely made Lefse. I love learning about Norwegian cuisine from Arne and Carlos and am amazed at how much I have picked up from them. Thanks Arne and Carlos.
I cannot have enough of you. You both are a joy for me. I watch you until I sleep my husband take my spectacle off and put aside my phone. Day after he told me two men were talking. I laugh and told him that I love watching their videos.
😂
My Grandfather came to Minneapolis from Bergen as a young man and we always had lutefisk when he was alive. He ate it the way Arne likes it. Perhaps we should try making it again. Merry Christmas! Enjoy you so much.
You should!
I love that Arne has his knitting with him in the kitchen! Thanks for the window into your world.
Arne really isn't interested in cooking. Kudos to you Carlos for trying to get him on board. You two are delightful.

We came from Minneapolis to California, so when my mother found, at the store, this wooden box with heavily salted codfish inside, she was very excited. I remember she soaked it a little while and then can't really remember what she did with it, but I remember we had potatoes, and the next day, she made mashed potato mixed with the leftover lutfisk and fried in a pan.. she called them potato patties.
I love it all. You really made some beautiful dishes for us to get to know you better. Perhaps, someday, you'll show us how you make that pancake. It looks wonderful. Hope you enjoyed your great meals.
My parents from Minneapolis used to winter in Palm Springs, where once a month the Gopher Club had a Scandinavian buffet with lutefisk and other traditional dishes at the Elks Club.
Coming from Trinidad in the Caribbean, we also have a salted cod dish we make often on Sundays and usually at Christmas called Buljol. The cod is soaked to remove the salt, shredded and prepared with chopped tomatoes, onion, oil and hot peppers and eaten on a type of bread. Some people cook it and this looks like a great way to try it. Also, LOVE the heart shaped pot!
I come from a Norweign family and remember very well all the women in the family bustling around in the kitchen making lutefisk and lefse!
I could never get past the smell of the lutefisk but lefse... i love, love,love!,, put a like butter and sugar wrapped in them which we still eat today! Enjoy!
Never eaten this but I do love fish, so I might! Peas and potatoes, yummy! Love the sweaters and Arne is so cute and funny! You guys are great. I love watching your videos!!
You are both "a natural" in the kitchen !! Thanks for sharing another Xmas tradition from your part of the wold.
We tried this and my family liked it-my son said it was the best lutefisk he had ever had. It pays to have friends teach you who know what they are doing!
That is so nice to hear!
Thank You, Thank You, Thank You for sharing.
Arne is in a mischievous mood today. Ha ha. Sweet child and sensible Daddy work so well together. Love you two. Happy Christmas. Thank you for making so many people happy. 🌹🎄❤️🌟🎄🌹🎄❤️🌟❤️🎄🌹🌟🎄❤️🌟🌹❤️🌟🎄❤️🌹🌟❤️🌹❤️🎄
My husband’s Swedish family made this Lutefisk when he was younger. I really enjoyed watching the process and options for serving.
Thank you for watching Vicki! Will you try making it for your husband?
What a great video thank you 😊 you guys make my day I love these family videos 😍
I absolutely ADORE you both. I look forward every week to your video! This channel has everything. From knitting, sewing, quilting, gardening, decorating, cooking. The list is endless! Your books are priceless to me. I have them all! TYVM for another wonderful stream. Please have an #AMAZING upcoming week! See you next time! Sending blessings to you both!
Thanks for your lovely comments!
Lutafisk & Lefsa! Yes! Love it
You two looked great in those knitted sweaters. You made me laugh,not wanting to touch that fish. The peas potatoes make that fish dish delivery delicious. Thanks for explaining the dish to us. You are both so lovely. Merry Christmas God bless you both
What a pleasure, as always! ❤️❤️
Thank you for sharing your traditions and bringing us into the kitchen with you. Carlos you seem to be a great cook !.

What can't you do?
This Christmas imitated by this recipe.
I'm going to decorate it to be happy.
I always admire the various tips that make me happy.^^thanks ARNE & CARLOS
👍👍👍
I was watching UA-cam to keep me company in the kitchen. I came along your video and I was so surprised... because I was making Lefse.
Again, just the pattern on the dishes show, you are designers. Looks like a undone and redone Delfter pattern, blown up into bigger details!
Love your cooking shows!
Another wonderful joy filled video. Thanks for putting a smile on my face. I must confess don't believe I will attempt to cook the fish but if I am ever offered some I might give it a try.
Yes it is like viscous if not done properly.
Dear Carlos, You are the Artist in the Kitchen and Arne, seems to be more comfy eating 🍽 and a fiber master!
Joining forces You both are a wonderful combination!
Mmm that bacon sounds good with the fish and pea stew! I’d like to try that.
Hi my favorite men.....I am not a lover of fish but loved watching you both can't wait till next week desert s yum yum bless you both Dolly
Que rica comida de Navidad 🎄, que el postre quede rico voy a esperar el video, feliz Navidad desde Uruguay 🇺🇾 🎄🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅
Looks yummy either way. Thanks
I love lutefisk. In my family, we eat it in a very simple way; lutefisk with salt and pepper on lefse with butter. It is delicious!
You guys have not only inspired my knitting/crafting but also inspired me to learn more about Norwegian culture. Thank you for sharing how you make this dish!
I love you both❤️. You compliment each other so well, Arne is the cutest ever when he laughs!
Hi Arne and Carlos. Arne so funny today. Carlos, what more could you ask for in your "Personal Assistant". Arne can do the dishes, clean, set the table and "knit" all done with a smile. A Multi-tasker :-) Love you both. I like fish but sorry not too keen on the look of this fish. Like all other ingredients though.
Mary Wilson Absolutely the best sous chef I could possibly ask for!!! 👨🍳 👨🍳
Thanks for the speedy reply. "Yes " ABSOLUTELY"
Love,love,love you two so much. Carlos as you know Christmas cooking normally is assigned to one person, what I mean each person has a special Christmas recipe. We have 4 children each year we celebrate Christmas at one of our children’s home and we all bring our special Christmas dish. As I was born in North Africa with an Maltese father, Italian mother, and an Australian husband we have a multicultural cornucopia of food and the grand children learn all about grandparents (us) and great grandparents Christmas traditions.
By the way the fish looks like baccala, which is one of the dishes we have at Christmas.
Yes, it is the same fish as used for baccala, but we put it in lye for a few days.
Thanks for sharing. I am so hungry now!
Arne cracks me up. Carlos you do a great job. You both make me happy🌲🌲🌲
Lutefisk is a frequent punchline of Minnesota jotes. Often available here at brunches and church basement fellowships along with "hot dishes" and jello salads, also often mentioned in Minnesota jokes.
Yes, we've heard a few of the jokes while in Minnesota... Funny!
The heart shaped pot you cooked your peas in is adorable! Bacon makes anything tastes terrific! Lol
Lutfisk is good. We have it in Sweden too but with a white sause. Looks delicious. Have never tried it the Arne way but it looks good. I will try that. I use to bake bread which resembles of lefse. 15:45 Arne is happy. You are so nice both of you.
Loved this!
My wife Patricia says she LOVES your Blue Fluted!
Merry Christmas to you both and your families!!!
Looks great to me. I’ve never had lutefisk but I’d certainly love to try it.
Thank you for this wonderful look into your christmals traditions. Carlos you are such a wonderful cook - and Arne is such a sweet helper! knitting and taking kitchen selfies cracked me up haha - Thank you for the smile you bring
I just love these guys
Thank you!
As always, you both make me laugh. Enjoy!
Love your video. Thank you for going into such detail about the fish dish preparation. I always enjoy learning about different traditions. You two are the best!
Yes.blue suits Carlos and green for Arne.Beautiful!!!!
Thanks for sharing guys! Loads of fun.
I love you two! You’re both adorable☺️
Delightful and festive!🐟🌲
Thank you for sharing of your traditions!!! Loved it!!!! Merry Christmas!
Ingebretsen's in Minneapolis, Willy's in Ft. Lauderdale, and I believe Scandinavian Specialties in Seattle all have lutefisk available, but it may be a seasonal item only.
I loved! 😄
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU BOTH!!! THANKS FOR SHARING LOVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS
I learned about lutefisk and lefsa about 30 years ago, when I lived in North Dakota. There were so many Norwegian immigrants that it was part of the Christmas celebrations among most of my friends. Thank you for such a clear explanation! @friendoblu
It looks amazing! Thank you so very much for sharing your lutefisk dinner with us!!❤️🧶✌🏻
What a lovely meal, and I loved the way you worked together. Happy Advent to you both!
Thank you for sharing of yourselves with us. D.
Loved the cooking lesson😘❄️🇨🇦🎄
I've only had the "jello" lutefisk. Glad to know the version that looks like fish! In Minnesota we butter the lefse and cover it with white or brown sugar. Being the good German that I am, I covered my lefse with potatoes and gravy. The Norwegians think I'm crazy! Have you been ice fishing yet?
Yeah... I'm of German AND Norwegian/Swedish descent... I eat the sugared lefse, or just plain or with gravy depending on my mood, but I won't touch the lutefisk mostly because of it's always like you said "jello". Pickled herring... different story though. And yes, I'm born and raised in MN too.
Love love this episode, thank you for sharing a little bit of the Norwegian traditions. My dads parents immigrated from Norway to Minnesota and then to Canada. They settled in an area called New Norway, Alberta. I remember eating lutefisk and my German mother learned to make the best lefsa. I have carried on the tradition of making lefsa at Christmas time too. Would you know of any good resources in Canada for lutefisk? Now that I am more mature maybe my tastebuds would appreciate lutefisk now. Lol
I would love to try that but without the mustard! Thank you once again for letting us into your wonderful home. I just love watching you xxxx
Wonderful video. Can’t wait to see your 2019 Christmas shows. Arne, you are priceless. Love your humour. Carlos, you are very talented in the kitchen. Love Arne sneaking in his knitting 😹😹😹😹😹
I enjoyed watching this so much! Love you both and thank you for sharing your time! Warm wishes.
Arne, you bring spirit to the kitchen! Delightful video guys, thanks so much.
I always wondered what that was. Amazing! Thanks for sharing! Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas Carlos & Arne!Love your video!
You guys are my favorite elves!!! I love your Christmas central!!! I would love to try the lutefisk! I really hope that your advent season is a wonderful one! Much love to both of you!
You two are the best! 💕💕💕 happy holidays! 🎄 always enjoy ALL of your videos.
That meal looks so delicious, and I loved watching how you cooked everything! And Arne, that was a nice table setting! Looking forward to watching your desserts next week! Have a great week guys!
Thank you for sharing you tradition with your viewers. Looks so delicious and Arne’s way of eating lutefisk is also delicious.

Loved the cooking video, Carlos. You are the best cook I've ever seen. Arnne, you we're so cute. Love you both. MERRY CHRISTMAS.
Looks so good! Eat before your lovely meals gets cold! Thank you for sharing...brings back memories that I haven't thought of since I was a small child :) Peace to you both...
Have been loving watching your videos and I grew up with the Lutefisk my mothers Lutheran church (Vashon Island near Seattle) made. Also LOVE making homemade potato Lefse which we allow to dry and then we mist with some water and when soft we spread with butter and sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon which we roll up cut and eat.
Looks delicious
I like your cute heart shaped pot!
I have never heard of that kind of fish but it looks delicious and I would give it a try.
I love that heart pot!
I would be knitting too!
Love you guys! I bet it is delicious!
I’m digging those sweaters ! As always , entertaining and informative video ! Happy Holidays !
Thank you for sharing your Dec. 23rd, Little Christmas Eve traditions. Will definitely try the pea stew. Loving your Advent Sundays. Getting excited for Christmas 🎄
I really enjoy seeing you both in the kitchen, thanks for this glimpse into your home.
Merry Christmas from Florida!
Thanks for sharing your traditional meals with us. Carlos your hair is so nice and healthy.
Arne your giggles are contagious makes me smile keep being you. BrambleKnits 🇨🇦
Very cool. I hope that dish is tasty
Good morning here! I should be working but I need a break from my computer work. The rest of the meal I am going to cook especially the peas that look great. I did buy salted dry cod last Saturday at the market. I will re-hydrate then bake in the oven with olive oil, garlic and hot pepper flakes. Yum I just thought I'd give you my version. Take care and have a wonderful day. Back to work for me💕💕
I grew up just south of Minnesota, so all I ever heard were horror stories about the "jello" lutefisk. I'm SO glad to hear that it doesn't have to be that way! I love fish, and now you've encouraged me to go find some. Love the sweaters; and Arne - I totally enjoy your laughter!
Merry Christmas from another fan from Minnesota!
I love your videos, they are very relaxing especially your outdoor videos. Your tutorial have made my knitting fun and stress free. Thank you.
hi guys I love your meal my mother made this meal for us when we were children it brought back memories I could almost smell and taste it thanks for the podcast I can hardly wait for next week see you then
I have never heard of it but I’m very intrigued. I love fish. Happy to spend the second of advent with you tho
