Lovage. A large unwieldy herb. Pick the stems off the leaves, tie them and hang them to dry for about 3 days. When crisp, crumble the leaves and store. Good in hotpots. Lovage seeds are used mainly in Indian cooking, and are from a plant of the caraway family. The greenish-brown seeds are a little larger than celery seeds and have a strong aroma of rather coarse thyme. Oregano can be substituted.
Löjrom. A Swedish delicacy of the delicate, pink roe of the bleak or vendace. These fish are small, so the work involved in providing this delicacy is huge.
Lemon sole. A yellowish-brown, thin, translucent flatfish which is not a true sole, though it has the same blunted shape.
