Title: Tweed Kettle
Post by: Scott on November 10, 2008, 09:04:20 PM
Tweed Kettle is a main dish comprised of salmon. Mother Goddess is the pointed oval sign of the yoni, known as the vesica piscus, Vessel of Fish. Early Christian leaders were unable to get rid of the symbol and so adopted it as a symbol for Christ as the Fisher of Men. There are many medevil paintings that show the Christ child inside the vesica piscus.

The recipe calls for:

1-1/2 pounds of salmon
Sea salt and Pepper to taste
1/4 teaspoon of ground mace (optional)
2-1/2 cups of white wine (optional)
2 teaspoons of chopped chives
1/2 stick of butter (softened)
1 tablespoon of parsley
Zest of 1 lemon

Cooking instructions: Simmer salmon for 5 minutes in a pan of boiling water. Drain and remove the skin and bones. Cut the salmonflesh into stew size pieces and season with the salt, pepper,and mace. Place fish in panand pour in wine, sprinkle with chives and simmer, uncovered for 5 minutes. Remove the fish pieces and place on a serving platter. Cover to keep warm. Haet up remaining liquid in pan to about 1 cup, stir in the butter and pour the mixture over the salmon. Garnish with parsley and lemon zest to serve. This will serve 4.

The holidays associated with this is Ostara, Imbolg, Midsumer, and Beltaine. Everyone enjoy!!!
