RECIPE

 

 
  23. Fish Gravy (Coulis de Poisson).

Put into a saucepan a piece of butter, a few slices of
 onion, a carrot cut in pieces; then add the heads, the remains,
 and the bones of any fish ; let the vegetables simmer without
 burning, moisten with a vegetable gravy, and when it boils,
 thicken in the same fashion as a meat gravy, and use it in
 the same way.
