Stockfish
Naturally dried
Stockfish is unsalted fish dried by cold air and wind on the foreshore. Cod is mainly used for this preservation method, but also saithe, haddock and tusk is used. The fish is hung on wooden racks during March, and is left to dry for approximately 3 months.
The process removes around 70% of the moisture. This method of drying fish is an old Norwegian tradition with roots all the way back to the Vikings. The process extends shelf life to several years.
Apama
Mechanically dried
In recent years, a new technique to produce dried fish has been introduced. This process, called Apama, dries the fish mechanically under controlled conditions.
This method ensures consistent quality, and speeds up the drying process considerably from 3 months to a few weeks. Apama uses the same types of fish as stockfish, but also includes salted variations.
