Hoo. Guests pretty much always get experiments, as I usually make stuff
up as I go along. ;-) The Shark Steaks I served to my last dinner guests
were a great success. They went back for seconds. <g>

I rarely follow recipes, but I have some "general formulas" that I
follow based on past experience for certain types of foods.

Dill and citrus is always a pretty good bet with any type of fish.
