This plum flummery recipe makes a delicious fruity mousse with a great plum tang. It makes good use of pre-stewed plums, and is especially handy at that time of the year when you have too many plums and quite enough jam, thank you very much! Most of the time it takes to make this recipe is waiting for it to chill sufficiently.

Moroccan Shabbat Fish
Every Shabbat my mother-in-law makes this Moroccan fish. I've modified it since the fish she uses in Israel isn't available in the Midwest. When you smell this fish cooking, you know it's Shabbat! Serve this with lots of challah to soak up the yummy juice!
