Dig a large hole in coarse gravel in an isolated spot, so the smell of uric acid won’t offend anyone. Bury the flesh in the hole for 2-3 months until all the fluid has drained off and putrefaction has set in. Then, hang the flesh out on a drying rack for a few more weeks, garnish and serve. Et voila – cured shark, Icelandic style.
