How to Cook Fish

FISH À LA CRÈME—III

Scald one quart of milk in a double-boiler with a blade of mace, a bay-leaf, and a sprig of parsley. Thicken with one tablespoonful each of corn-starch and butter rubbed together. Take from the fire, add salt and pepper to season, and the beaten yolks of two eggs. Put a layer of fish in a buttered baking-dish, then a layer of sauce, and repeat until the dish is full, having sauce on top. Cover with crumbs, dot with butter, and brown in the oven.
