How to Cook Fish

by Myrtle Reed

STUFFED SHAD—III

Prepare a shad as for boiling and stuff with seasoned crumbs, adding the beaten yolk of an egg to bind. Fill the fish and sew up; put into a baking-pan enough water or stock to keep from burning and two tablespoonfuls of butter. Bake carefully, basting as required. Take up the fish and add to the liquid enough stock to make the required quantity of sauce. Thicken with flour browned in butter, season with lemon-juice, catsup, and Sherry or Madeira. Pour around the fish and serve.
