DIRECTIONS
- Wash the fish, cut off the head and tail, and tie or sew the fish in a piece of clean white cheese-cloth.
- Put the fish in a large saucepan of rapidly boiling water, to which a tablespoon of vinegar has been added.
- Reduce the heat at once, and let simmer for thirty minutes if the fish weighs 2 pounds, and fifteen minutes longer for each additional pound.
- Lift the fish out of the saucepan, and put it into a colander to drain.
- When thoroughly drained open the cloth, lift the fish out by the sides of the cloth, and roll it carefully onto a hot serving platter.
REMARKS
Serve with Hollandaise Sauce (page 32).
