Small red mullet. A high quality fish of a different family from the other (grey) mullets, and which has a far better flavour and lean, firm flesh. Its liver is highly prized. Do not confuse it with gurnard, which has a slightly paler colour. This fish may vary from pinkish-reddish crimson to rosy pink in colour, with a paler underbelly and two long barbels on the chin. This variety is not quite so prized as Mullus surmuletus, which is slightly bigger and has yellowish stripes on its sides.
Forkbeard. A greyish or brownish fish with reddish fins from Spanish waters. It is usually fried, but this must be done quickly as it does not keep well.
Greater forkbeard. A greyish or brownish fish of the cod family with reddish fins, from Spanish waters. It is usually fried, but this must be done quickly as it does not keep well.
Black boletus mushroom. Excellent to eat from August to October whether raw in salads or cooked or preserved and also freezes well.
