  3. those which are thickest across the shoulders are the best.‘ Have ready a fish-kettle of spring water boiling, throw in a handful of salt, put the fish on the drainer and boil for 20 minutes — of course a small dor}^ requires a shorter time — lift the drainer out and take care in transferring the fish to the dish, on which a napkin has been placed over the earthenware drainer.
  4. Serve Dutch sauce in a sauce-boat, or brown caper sauce, according to taste and to the other sauces of the dinner that day.
