Klippfiskboller offer a savory and slightly salty taste with a subtle sweetness from the potatoes and milk. The spices add warmth and depth, creating a well-rounded flavor profile.
The primary flavor comes from the klippfisk, which provides a distinct, salty, and slightly fermented taste. Boiled potatoes contribute a starchy sweetness and help bind the mixture. Milk or cream adds richness and moisture. Onions and spices like nutmeg and white pepper lend aromatic warmth and balance the saltiness.

Soaking the Clipfish
Properly soaking the klippfisk is crucial to remove excess salt. Change the water frequently (every few hours) over a period of 24-48 hours, depending on the thickness and saltiness of the fish. Taste the fish before using it in the recipe.
Binding the Mixture
The potatoes help bind the mixture together. Ensure they are well-mashed and cooled before adding them to the fish. If the mixture is too wet, add a bit of breadcrumbs or flour to absorb excess moisture.
Seasoning
Be careful with the salt, as the klippfisk is already salty. Taste the mixture before adding any extra salt. Experiment with different spices to find your preferred flavor profile. Nutmeg, white pepper, and allspice are common choices.
Frying
Fry the boller in butter on medium heat until they are golden brown on all sides. Be careful not to overcrowd the pan.
