Western Iceland 2010

The Greenland Shark flesh pieces are pressed together and put in a hole in the ground with heavy rocks on top to put pressure on the meat.  It is left for 2-3 months to ferment and when it is soft and smells of ammonia they hang up the pieces in this well ventilated drying shack.  After 2-4 months of drying, it is deemed ready for consumption.
