[Sca-cooks] UHH-OH!

Keep your general menu as is; it's much too late to make major revisions.  Warn HM of the cumin content, and let her deal, if the rest of the meal will still be balanced, or make a couple of special dishes for High Table only, so that she may better enjoy the feast.  You will probably go a little over what you'd originally planned if you do the latter, but it shouldn't be too much over, since it's only for one table.  And you've probably got a lot of recipes which you decided against, which could be served if necessary, right?
Hope this helps.

  Hi all -

  Some time ago I wrote with a request re Imam Bayildi.  After all the help I decided to replace it with a period stuffed eggplant recipe, which was absolutely delicious.  First time I'm eaten eggplant and actually enjoyed it.  

  But now I have another dilemma.  The Benevolence Crusade is coming up in just under 2 weeks.  I'm having mostly middle eastern and andulsian recipes.  I guess about 60% of them call for cumin. 

  Pegasus just came out with a notice that HM Nerissa is allergic to cumin.

  At this late stage I can't face the thought of throwing out all my whole feast plan and starting over -- so is their a similar tasting alternative?  Or should I just make the recipes, as is, but leave out the cumin?
