Send over a case of wine.
What goes well with whale?
LMAO!
I'm not sure that anything does....
An amusing (at least to me) related item that may be of interest is that here in Washington State, the Makah Indians were in the news back in the late 1990's because they wanted to revive whaling as a tradition for their community. The screaming hysteria in the press and the courts was deafening, seemingly for years, until 1999 when they finally got clearance to do this. It took quite a while for them to actually get one, in large measure because whenever they would go out in the longboats there would be a flotilla of Greenpeace hippies shadowing them, shouting and screaming and racing about and doing everything they could to harass the Makahs as well as any whales in the vicinity. Well, they finally got one, harpooned and then shot dead with a .50 cal. rifle. They dragged it up onto the beach and had a huge production over the cleaning and cooking of the meat, but when it came down to the locals actually eating it there were few takers and all of the TV interviews that I saw at the time showed local indians turning up their noses in disgust after one timid bite and throwing the rest away.
I'm told that for weeks thereafter there were huge billboards advertising "whale meat dinners" at the casinos in the area, but I also understand that there were few takers.
I guess it's an 'acquired taste' that's difficult to become enthusiastic about when you've got a McDonald's and a Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Wendy's right down the street.
Whales are warm-blooded mamals, and as such would probably be considered "red meat".
Therefore, I am thinking grilled on the barby, like a steak.
Or slow-roasted, like prime rib.
It would be interesting, at least if one did not end up with 10 tons of leftovers.
