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.

Welcome to the new people who have joined the Facebook group. (Facebook group) If you would like to join, you will get occasional updates about what has been added to to the site.

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.

Please do let me know if you see any errors, broken links or pictures.
