A hernia is the protrusion of an organ or piece of tissue from its normally contained space. In the abdomen, a hernia usually involves a piece of bowel, or omentum, which is a fatty apron that hangs down from the midportion of the colon (large intestine), protruding through a weak area in the abdominal wall.
Haddock and Cod are both endangered species fish-we eat far too many of them. The sustainable fish that has the nearest taste to both Cod and Haddock is Polluck-lovely white flakes of meat with a very delicate flavour.
The wind-dried haddock, which they usually spread with butter, comes in various forms: as thin chips, feathery-soft strips, or brittle crunchy pieces. A word of caution about harÃ°fiskur: this stuff is really fishy.
