Directions

Shad should be fat. Clean it well, take out the inside and the gills. Score and salt the fish, make a dressing of bread, butter, pepper, salt, parsley, thyme and sweet marjoram ; fill the fish with this ; tie it up and put it in a pan with some water : dredge the fish with flour, let it cook slowly, baste it often ; when nearly done, add some mushroom catsup to the gravy ; season to your taste with pepper and salt. Take it up very carefully : bake half an hour.
