[Sca-cooks] fish at feast...

[Sayyida Halima al-Shafi'i of Raven's Cove]

I served salmon at a feast in April (along with oatcakes and fresh 
asparagus-I love spring!).  I got salmon for $2.97 a pound at 
Harris-Teeter.  I did have to beg for a large enough quantity and get 
special dispensation from the store manager.  I used 20-25 pounds of it. 
 It was enough for the whole feast (over 100 people) because not 
everyone eats fish.  I did serve a cream and herb sauce on the side with 
it.  I rubbed it with a little olive oil, sprinkled with salt and 
pepper, and covered loosely with foil.  I baked it until nearly done, 
and it finished while waiting to be served.  Even fish haters enjoyed it.
