BOILED SALT COD

Put your fish to soak over night;

change the water in the morning, and let
it stay till you put it on, which should be
two hours before dinner;

keep it at scalding heat all the time, but do
not let it boil, or it will get hard; eat it with egg
sauce or drawn butter.

If you have any cod fish left from dinner, mix it with
mashed potatoes, and enough flour to stick them together;

season with pepper;

make it into little cakes, and fry them in ham drippings.

BOILED SALMON -3

When smoked salmon can be secured, it makes a
splendid fish for boiling.

If it is cooked until tender and then served
with a well-seasoned sauce,

it will find favor with most persons.

Freshen smoked salmon in warm water as much as
seems necessary, remembering that the cooking
to which it will be subjected will remove a
arge amount of the superfluous salt.

Cover the salmon with hot water, and simmer
slowly until it becomes tender.

Remove from the water, pour a little melted
butter over it, and serve with any desired sauce.

BOILED SALMON #1

The middle slice of salmon is the best.

Sew up neatly in a mosquito-net bag,
and boil a quarter of an hour to the
pound in hot salted water. When done,
unwrap with care, and lay upon a hot
dish, taking care not to break it.

Have ready a large cupful of drawn butter,
very rich, in which has been stirred a
tablespoonful of minced parsley and the
juice of a lemon. Pour half upon the salmon
and serve the rest in a boat.

Garnish with parsley and sliced eggs.

SALMON SALAD

Persons who are fond of salmon will find salmon salad a
very agreeable dish. In addition to affording a means of
varying the diet, this salad makes a comparatively cheap
high-protein dish that is suitable for either supper or
luncheon.

2 c. salmon
1 c. diced celery
1/4 c. diced Spanish onion
3 or 4 sweet pickles, chopped fine
French dressing
Salad dressing
Lettuce

Look the salmon over carefully, removing any skin and bones.

Break into medium-sized pieces and mix carefully
with the celery, onion, and chopped pickles.

Marinate this with the French dressing, taking care not to
break up the salmon.

Drain and serve with any desired salad dressing on salad plates
garnished with lettuce.
