Well. A recent visit to Italy, during which I ate pezzogna in Campania, led me to do a lot of work on fish. Some kind Chowhounds helped out with the difficulties of identifying pezzogna. And then I added about 400 names for fish in Galician, Catalan, Basque and Castilian. It always seems to happen that I end up going off on a tangent like that. Very odd.

I am still working on improvements to the site. This is a long job and entry of new food terms will happen much more quickly once this structural work is done.
