I know that movie. I have a vague recollection of someone carrying a plant several times.

Out of the freezer, and off to work in a bag, and just 3 minutes in the microwave! Stubbs' green chili sauce on the side.

It was salmon roe. I get a lot of it when I catch other salmons, maybe I should start to eat it instead of feeding it to the seals or otters?

I've never tried it (other than as bait). Only tried caviar once, when I was 18, and didn't really like it. Tried fried perch eggs (a favourite of the old Germans), and didn't think too much of that either. If presented the opportunity, I'd certainly give salmon roe a shot, as well as give the other things I've tried in the past a second chance. I used to fish with a man who ate the big roe sacks from burbot, fried and served on toast for breakfast every morning, and he was disgustingly healthy and incredibly strong into his late 80's.

Next time you get the chance, put a spoonful of salmon roe on top of a cracker with cream cheese. Absolutely delicious.

I remember decades ago having Herring Roe and, more recently but still a couple of decades, Cod Roe. Lovely on toast.

Our burbot is cousin to the cod (the Green Ling, specifically), tragically separated from the ocean when the continents split apart, adapted to fresh water, they still spawn at the same time as cod in the ocean. Old Ralph used to swear by the roe, and even at 45 years my senior I wouldn't have wanted to mess with him.

When i was a lad Soft Cod Roe (Milt from the male fish) was a regular Saturday treat for us, mum used to fry it then spread it on hot buttered toast was very tasty but not overly fishy. Sprats and elvers were also regulars as a treat. Haven't seen sprats over here but can get elvers at the Chinese supermarket.

Warmed-up leftovers from Easter lunch at work today. While everybody else in the office kitchen was chowing down on assorted takeaways (except our co-op student, whose mum makes him a sandwich every morning...), I enjoyed herb-crusted roast leg of lamb with a leek and mushroom stuffing, roast potatoes, carrots, parsnips, peas, homemade gravy and a spoonful of redcurrant jelly.

The lamb was locally produced, via an independent butcher. I even managed to re-roll the boned leg and tie it adequately so it was still intact after cooking this year - previously, most of the stuffing has ended up on the bottom of the roasting pan. It was delicious on Sunday, and doubly so today due in no small part to the drooling envy of my colleagues
