Yep. Reduce the portion size or increase the price. Add a fancy name, and
voila! A delicacy. :-)

Sounds pretty desperate. Kind of like a fishy shepherd's pie. I think I'd

stick to the snails and liver pate'.

It's pretty hard to find salted herring around here, although I do have

a 1 lb box od dried cod in the refrigerator. Anyone have a favorite recipe
using dried cod?
