Question about the movie Babette's Feast?

I can remember the whole thing. I can see it plainly in my mind, but for the life of me, I can’t remember what that stuff was called.

It looked awful. Do you want to make some?

Here you go:

Ol-brot [ale bread soup]

Take dried cod and stale rye bread, break both of them into pieces. Put the cod into warm water a few hours before preparing the soup to rehydrate. When it is time to make the soup, press the excess water out of the dried fish, and add the fish and bread to a pot with enough ale to cover. Simmer until the bread dissolves and the fish is rehydrated and cooked through.

Bon appetit!

@thorninmud Your answer is exactly the kind of thing that shows how great Fluther is!

Wow one great film, one odd fish and bread recipe. : )

@hawaii_jake I wouldn’t mind trying it.

Thanks everyone for your answers.
