RED MULLET.
| Ingredients: | Oiled paper thickening of butter and flour 1/2
teaspoonful of anchovy sauce 1 glass of sherry; cayenne and salt to
taste.
|
| Method: | Clean the fish, take out the gills, but leave the inside, fold
in oiled paper, and bake them gently. When done, take the liquor that
flows from the fish, add a thickening of butter kneaded with flour; put
in the other ingredients, and let it boil for 2 minutes. Serve the sauce
in a tureen, and the fish, either with or without the paper cases.
|
| Time: | About 25 minutes. |
| Notes: | Red mullet may be broiled, and should be folded in oiled paper,
the same as in the preceding recipe, and seasoned with pepper and salt.
They may be served without sauce; but if any is required, use melted
_butter_, Italian or anchovy sauce. They should never be plain boiled.
