Meaning & usage
a traditional Norwegian dumpling made from slaughter blood and flour, usually with pieces of suet or other fat, and boiled in water or broth
Where this word comes from
From blod (“blood”) + klubb (“dumpling made from flour and blood or potatoes”). The first element is Old Norse blóð (“blood”), from Proto-Germanic *blōþą (“blood”). The second element is the food sense of klubb (“large flour dumpling”), probably related to klump (“lump”) and klubbe (“club, mallet”), referring to the dumpling's shape. Compare Norwegian Nynorsk blodklubb and Swedish blodklubb (“blood dumpling”).
