Neytendakönnun um saltfisk: áhrif saltmagns á upplifun neytenda

Abstract

Saltfiskur hefur í aldaraðir verið ein mikilvægasta útflutningsvara Íslendinga og á sér djúpar rætur í sögu og matarmenningu þjóðarinnar. Þrátt fyrir það er þekking og neysla á saltfiski innanlands takmörkuð, einkum meðal yngri kynslóða. Neytendakönnun sem Matís framkvæmdi árið 2019 sýndi skýrt að áhugi og neysla minnkaði eftir aldri, og að saltfiskur væri oft talinn of saltur. Þessar niðurstöður vöktu þörf fyrir ítarlegri könnun á upplifun neytenda af saltfiski með mismunandi saltstyrk. Í verkefninu Saltfiskkræsingar, sem er þriggja ára norrænt samstarf Íslands, Noregs og Færeyja, var framkvæmd neytendakönnun sumarið 2025. Markmið hennar var að kanna hvernig saltmagn í útvötnuðum saltfiski hefði áhrif á geðjun og upplifun neytenda, og hvort munur væri eftir aldri. Þátttakendur voru annars vegar 18–35 ára og hins vegar 55–75 ára. Alls tóku 106 þátt í könnuninni, og smökkðu saltfisk sem var mis saltur (~1,1%, ~1,7% og ~2,5%). Metin var heildargeðjun, saltbragð og hentugar matreiðsluaðferðir, auk þess sem þátttakendur svöruðu spurningum um þekkingu, reynslu og neysluvenjur tengdum saltfiski. Niðurstöðurnar gefa mikilvægar vísbendingar um að útvatnaður saltfiskur sem inniheldur um ~2,5% salt sé of saltur, sérstaklega að mati yngri neytenda, en að ~1,1% saltstyrkur sé of lágur. Saltmagn hefur afgerandi áhrif á geðjun og um 1,7% saltstyrkur virðist vera hæfilegt jafnvægi milli bragðs, áferðar og væntinga neytenda. Mikil dreifing í svörum sýnir að ekki er til eitt „rétt“ saltmagn, heldur þarf að huga að fjölbreyttu vöruúrvali sem höfðar til ólíkra hópa. Þekkingar- og reynslumunur á milli kynslóða kallar á aukna fræðslu og kynningu, sérstaklega með áherslu á að gera saltfisk aðgengilegan og áhugaverðan fyrir yngra fólk. _____ Salt-cured fish has long been one of Iceland’s most valuable export products, yet domestic knowledge and consumption remain limited, particularly among younger generations. A consumer survey conducted by Matís in 2019 indicated declining interest with age and frequent perceptions of the product as overly salty. To address these issues, a consumer test was carried out in 2025 within the Trendy-Cod project, a three-year Nordic collaboration between Iceland, Norway, and the Faroe Islands. The consumer survey aimed to evaluate consumer perceptions of desalted fish with different salt levels and to identify potential generational differences. A total of 106 participants, aged 18–35 and 55–75, assessed fish samples with ~1.1%, ~1.7%, and ~2.5% residual salt. Participants rated overall liking, saltiness, and preferred cooking methods, and provided information on their knowledge and consumption habits. Findings show that salt level strongly influences liking. Fish with ~2.5% salt was often considered too salty, particularly by younger consumers, whereas ~1.1% was judged too bland. A concentration around 1.7% appears to represent the best compromise between taste, texture, and consumer expectations. The results highlight the need for diversified product ranges and improved education to increase acceptance, especially among younger consumers.
