Mackinaw Trout Baked

Before baking this fish remove the head and tail. In your careful preparations put dripping in a baking pan, sprinkle with salt, add ½ cup of water and a spoonful or 2 of vinegar, or, 1/9 lemon sliced. Bake the fish half an hour, basting frequently. The fish by this time is nicely browned; remove it to a platter; pour hot water into the pan, thicken slightly. Add lemon juice to taste, and pour under the fish.

Baked White Fish

After dressing, split the fish down the back and remove the backbone. Wipe the fish and dip in beaten egg. This may be applied with a feather. Boll in flour and then in egg again. Lay it in a baking pan that has been previously heated, add dripping or butter, and bake carefully in a moderate oven for 20 minutes. Baste often. If the fish is properly cooked, not scorched, it will be of a rich yellow-brown. Serve with hot fish-sauce.

Pickerel may be baked in the same way and served with green peas.

Salmon Collared

Split such a part of the fish as may be sufficient to make a handsome roll. Wash and wipe; mix salt, mace and allspice, in a quantity to season very high, rub it inside and out. Boll tight and bind in shape with a strip of thin muslin and put it, with bay leaves, pepper and salt, into a mixture of two thirds water and one third vinegar, sufficient in quantity to cover the roll. Cover closely and simmer until done. Serve cold. Boiled fennel makes a pretty garnish, and is preferred by many.

Boiled Salmon

Families purchasing a fresh salmon should parboil the portion not required for the day's cousumption and lay. it aside in the liquor. Boil it in this liquor when wanted. By this means the curd will be set and the fish will be equally good as at first. The custom of serving up rich sauces is unknown in countries where salmon most abound. A little lemon juice, or white wine vinegar added to melted butter, being quite sufficient.

How To Broil

Cut the salmon in thick slices, dry on a clean towel, roll in flour and broil carefully. Garnish with boiled fennel and parsley. Boil the fennel in bunches.

Salmon Steak And Potatoes

Dredge the, steak with pepper and salt some time before cooking, brush with melted butter, (this may be done with a feather), and broil ten minutes, same as a beefsteak. Heat the platter. Have new potatoes ready boiled, cut them in quarters and lay a double border around the steak. Melt a bit of fresh butter and pour over it hot, also the juice of ½ lemon. Garnish the potatoes with sprigs of parsley.
