Robert Schaefer was getting ready to cook 500 pounds of fresh lutefisk for the Zion meatball and lutefisk dinner on Saturday. Robert explained, “Either you like it or you don’t. Those that do will eat over a pound.” Robert said he will cook the fish in small batches so that it is always fresh and hot. “It only takes about three minutes to cook a five-pound batch and we will serve it with butter, salt and pepper.” Robert brought the fresh Norwegian cod from Mike’s Seafood in Glenwood and it was never frozen.
