How to Cook Fish

DEVILLED FISH—II

Mix cold cooked flaked fish with Cream Sauce and chopped hard-boiled eggs, seasoning with salt, pepper, minced parsley, and made mustard. Fill small shells—clam shells are usually used—and cool. Brush the tops with beaten egg, sprinkle with crumbs, and fry in deep fat. Serve with Tartar Sauce.

Mix together one tablespoonful each of mustard, lemon-juice, and hot water, add a teaspoonful of Worcestershire, and salt and paprika to season. Broil the fish until it begins to brown, spread with the mixture, dip in crumbs, and finish broiling. Serve with Tartar Sauce.

ESCALLOPED FISH—I

Reheat equal quantities of cold cooked flaked fish and cold cooked maraconi cut small in equal parts of tomato sauce and oyster liquor. Season with salt and pepper, grated onion, paprika, and minced parsley. If desired, this mixture may be put into a buttered baking-dish, covered with crumbs, dotted with butter, and browned in the oven.

Fill a buttered baking-dish half full of cold cooked flaked fish seasoned to taste. Cover with Cream Sauce, seasoned with grated onion, chopped celery, minced parsley, and clove. Cover with mashed potato, beaten light with the stiffly beaten white of egg, dot with butter, and brown in the oven. Cream may be used instead of the Cream Sauce.
