Lye (also known as caustic soda) is a corrosive alkaline substance, commonly, sodium hydroxide (NaOH). Previously, lye was among the many different alkalis leached from hardwood ashes.[1] Now, lye is commercially manufactured using a membrane cell method, which is an improvement from the previous diaphragm cell methods of Castner-Kellner, Gibbs, and Nelson. answer taken from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lye

The cost of lye can vary depending on the quantity and quality of the product. On average, a pound of lye can cost anywhere from $3 to $5. Bulk purchases or specialty lye products may have different pricing.
To make a basic compound using lye, mix the lye (sodium hydroxide) with water to create a sodium hydroxide solution. Lye is a strong base that dissociates in water to produce hydroxide ions, making the solution basic. Remember to handle lye with caution as it is highly corrosive.
To make lye solution for lutefisk, you can mix food-grade lye with water in a well-ventilated area while wearing protective gear such as gloves and goggles. Follow a recipe that specifies the ratio of lye to water, as improper dilution can be dangerous to handle. Pour the solution over the fish to soak and begin the curing process.
