Well, perhaps some of the comments and recipes in these files, also in
the FOOD section might be helpful:
chicken-msg      (138K)  9/27/99    Period and SCA chicken recipes.
fish-msg         (145K)  8/30/99    Medieval fish dishes. Fish in the SCA.
mushrooms-msg     (91K)  4/26/99    Period mushrooms. Recipes.

fish balls? Don't think I have any for those, but there is one for ram
balls in this file :-)  :
organ-meats-msg   (37K)  8/31/99    Period cooking of organ meats.

There is some info and I think recipes in this file for gravlax:
stockfish-msg     (72K)  8/30/99    Period preserved fish. Dried, smoked and 
                                       salted fish. Recipes.
