How to Cook Fish

by Myrtle Reed

ROASTED SHAD

Marinate the cleaned fish for an hour in oil and lemon-juice, seasoning with salt, pepper, minced parsley, and thyme. Drain, wrap in oiled paper, fastening securely, and bake carefully. Take up the fish and serve with Ravigote Sauce.

TOASTED SHAD

Put into a baking-pan a tablespoonful of butter and lay a cleaned and split shad upon it, skin-side up. Place it under a gas flame until the skin is puffed and blistered. Turn out on a hot platter; season with salt and pepper, dot with butter, and serve garnished with lemon and parsley.
