| I ate fish eggs last night- they were horrible. But at least they weren't poisonous. They were a light red colour, slighty smaller than a pea. I asked the waiter which fish the eggs were from. He didn't know. Can anyone help me out. |

That sounds like salmon caviar to me. What are you doing eating caviar? Surely you should have asked for it covered in batter and deep fried? |

| I was at a Jewish wedding. Sephardics don't deep fry anything. However, I did learn that Ladino is a romance language. |

Ladin is a Rhaeto-Romance language spoken in the Dolomite mountains in Italy, between the regions of Trentino-Alto Adige/S�dtirol and Veneto.
Ladino is a Romance language, derived mainly from Old Castilian (Spanish) and Hebrew.

are you sure? I was under the impression that British style fried fish (of fishh and chips) is derived from Sephardic cuisine. |
