No. 204. _Turbot à la Crème._

Cook the turbot as above and dish it without a napkin, (but be careful

that it is well drained before you place it on the dish, and absorb what

water runs from the fish with a napkin, for that liquor would spoil your

sauce, and cause it to lose that creamy substance which it ought to

retain; this remark applies to all kinds of fish that is served up with

the sauce over it); then put one pint of cream on the fire in a good

sized stewpan, and when it is nearly simmering add half a pound of fresh

butter, and stir it as quickly as possible until the butter is melted,

but the cream must not boil; then add a liaison of three yolks of eggs,

season with a little salt, pepper, and lemon juice, pour as much over

the turbot as will cover it, and serve the remainder in a boat; or if

not approved of, dish the fish on a napkin, garnish with parsley, and

serve the sauce in a boat. This sauce must not be made until the moment

it is wanted.
