A palpable hit! With a pike!

     Title: BAKED STUFFED LAKE TROUT, SALMON, OR WALLEYED PIKE
Categories: Fish
  Servings:  6

      1 ts Salt                                1    Stuffing recipe
      1    Carrot, thinly sliced               1    Bay leaf
           White pepper                    1 1/2 c  White wine
      1    Rib celery, thinly sliced           1    Lemon, sliced very thin
      6 lb Fish, dressed                       4 tb Butter, melted
    3/4 ts Dried marjoram                      2    Shallots, thinly sliced
------------------------------CELERY STUFFING------------------------------
    3/4 c  (4 ribs)                          1/2    Chopped onions
    1/2 c  Bread crumbs                      1/4 ts Savory
           Chopped celery                      4 tb Butter
           Salt and fresh black pepper       1/4 c  Chopped celery tops
-------------------------FENNEL / TARRAGON STUFFING-------------------------
      2 tb Chopped parsley                     6 tb Butter, melted
    1/2 ts Fennel seed                     1 1/2 c  Roughly torn fresh
      2 tb Chopped fresh tarragon                   Bread crumbs
           Salt and fresh pepper

  Marjoram goes well with fish, and here's a recipe that uses it both in and
  on the fish.  Neither lake trout nor salmon need be scaled, but do scale
  the pike.  A whole baked fish on a garnished platter always looks good to
  guests.
  Salt and pepper the fish inside and out, then stuff it and sew up or skewer
  the opening.
    Place in a buttered pan and lay lemon slices along its length. Stick a
  toothpick in each slice.
    Add the vegetables, marjoram, bay leaf, and white wine and bake,
  uncovered, for about 35 minutes in a 400 degree oven, basting first with
  the melted butter and then with the liquid in the pan. CELERY STUFFING
  Saute the chopped celery and onions in butter in a small skillet for 15
  minutes, until tender but still with a little bite.
    Add the chopped celery tops and the bread crumbs.  Season to taste with
  salt, pepper, and savory.  Makes 1 cup.
  FENNEL SEED AND TARRAGON STUFFING

  Mix all ingredients together and stuff fish.

Ah, you haven't heard the cathedral choirs in the Isles or on
the Continent. Some mighty good singing, even by the priests.

Read your first sentence and your last sentence. And reflect on
how people to this day are rewriting the biographies of their
forebears to make them heroes, villains, gays, syphilitics,
wife-beaters, husband-beaters, plagiarists, and/or aliens.

 -> And the fact that it could happen doesn't obviate the responsibility
 -> we have to propagate good information over bad whenever we have the

 RH> True, but then who ever thought she really said it anyway?

It is possible that some people are less intelligent or less
discriminating consumers of bad information than you are.
