Rakfisk is considered a fish delicacy and is served with lefse (flat bread), sour cream, real butter and onion. Because of its extremely strong taste and smell, it is common to drink beer and a strong Norwegian spirits (Aquavit) when eating it.

It is not recommended that rakfisk be eaten by people with a reduced immune defense or by pregnant women. Note that all recipes for rakfisk states that the fish must never be in contact with soil. This is very important because of the risk of the wrong bacteria growing in the fish, especially Clostridium botulinum which causes botulism.
