Ingredients

  • 4 pounds to a three-pint pudding-pan
  • half pint of milk
  • 2 tablespoonfuls of flour
  • a pint of oysters
  • half pint of cream
  • pepper
  • salt

Directions

1

Take any kind of large white fish, 4 pounds to a three-pint pudding-pan; wash the fish in cold water, put on to boil, and let get cool. Take off the skin and flake the meat off the bones with a fork; parboil a pint of oysters; when done put to cool, then take out the hearts; boil half pint of milk and half pint of cream, beat up 2 tablespoonfuls of flour and 1 of butter to a light cream, which must be stirred into the boiling milk and cream; this will make a rich sauce; season with pepper and salt to taste. Take off the sauce when done and stir in fish and oysters, then put in a pudding-dish and put a layer of bread crumbs on top; over the bread crumbs put flakes of butter. Put in oven and let bake 20 minutes; make potato croquettes and lay on the dish, which must be garnished with parsley; serve hot.
