  Take the middle piece of the fish, and skin it ; make a

the yolks of two hard-boiled eggs, some grated bread-crumbs,
pepper, salt, grated lemon-peel, and nutmeg ; bind this with
the beaten white of an egg; put it into the fish, and sew the
latter up. Place the whole in a tin dish, with bits of butter
over the top of it, and bake it for an hour in a Dutch oven ;
turn and baste it frequently. Garnish with fried roe, or
oysters.
