How to Cook Fish

by Myrtle Reed

SALMON À LA MARYLAND

Prepare and clean a small salmon and simmer in salted water until done. Prepare a Drawn-Butter Sauce and add to it half a cupful of butter. When the butter is melted, take from the fire and add quickly two eggs beaten with the juice of half a lemon. Pour the sauce over the fish and serve.

SALMON À LA NAPLES

Fry salmon steaks in butter, seasoning with salt, pepper, and grated nutmeg. When half cooked, add half a cupful of white wine to the butter, cover, and simmer slowly until done. Cover the salmon with cooked oysters, pour the liquid remaining in the pan over the fish, and serve.
