[AT] ATIS Charity Auction

[charlie hill]

I've heard lots of stories about the ways Northern Europeans and US 
decendants eat herring.  Just for the sake of discussion let me tell you how 
us good ole boy SE US red necks eat the stuff.
We only eat them in the spring when they run up the local rivers and creeks 
to spawn.  We catch them fresh with a variety of different net techniques. 
The REAL sportsmen catch them with a rod and reel and artificial lures.  We 
gut them, scale them and cut their heads off (not necessarily in that 
order).  Then we score the sides of the fish laterally all the way to the 
bone about 3 or 4 times on each side.
Now it's time to bread them lightly in a mixture of white corn meal, flour, 
salt and black pepper.  Next they go into hot oil in a cast iron pot and fry 
until they float.  Take them out, let them drip a few seconds, put one  fish 
on one slice of white bread, coat generously with Texas Pete hot pepper 
sauce and wash it down with a cold Pepsi or Coke or a cold beer.   It's 
important to fry them until they float.  That way you can eat bones and all 
and never know the difference.

NO I'm not joking.  That's the way we do it.

Mattias,

I'm still working on that dozen or so tins of creamed herring in mushroom
sauce on my desk.  It comes from Germany.  I mistakenly ordered it when I
was looking for pickled herring.  I'm down to 4 tins.  I'd find it easier to
deal with pickled herring but we can't find it locally.  :-(  If I'm the
only one bidding it should go cheap!
