    Any eel? Or specific varieties?

    I guess any eel!

    Eel blood is poisonous to humans and other mammals, but both cooking
    and the digestive process destroy the toxic protein.

    An Australian recipe, then. Bugs should be Moreton Bay bugs - but that's
    just me being pedantic. And speck should be called out as ham for tose
    from "away" (rest of the world). Bv)=

    We used to have a fair amount of echo members from down under.
