Every year around Valentines day it’s the season of the “Skrei”. Skrei is a codfish that you can only order a few weeks a year. The season starts at the first full moon of the year until the end of march.

The name “Skrei” comes from the Norwegian word “skreid” which means wanderer. It’s a symbolic name for the long journey the Skrei makes.
During mating season the Skrei travels from the Barents Sea to a Norwegian island group called Lofoten.

During his trip, the Skrei doesn’t eat a lot. Mostly just some schrimps. This makes it a firm low fat white piece of fish.

So i bake them in some butter.

My garnish for today: celeriac cream,

some very shortly baked spinach with spring onion,

North sea schrimps,

and a little Hollandaise sauce.

And now we are ready to serve.😉

So here you go guys, your “Love fish”.❤️
