FISH AND SAUCES TO SERVE Fish' soiild not be considered only a "Friday food” for' it is just as de licious on other days of the week. Women should learn to use this food in their meal-planning, for it supplies many of the necessary and vital tl- ements of the diet, There is no need to lack variety in preparing fish, for it can be boiled, steamed, baked, broiled or fried. Canada is particularly fortunate in the fact that almost every variety of fish is obtainable in its waters, a mat ter which the careful housewife should appreciate, Become familiar- with the various kinds, not neglecting the many delicious smoked varieties that are, now found on every market- Fish isivery simple to cook but there are certain basic rules that should be followed, Always select fresh firm fish. Fresh fish will always sink when placed in water. Allow one pound of fish to two persons, weighed before being prepared for cooking. Because of the strong odor, fish must be kept closely covered in a cold place. If it ,is to be kept for more than two or three days, clean well, cut in pieces and cook slightly in oil for just a few minutes. In steaming or boiling fish, place on a plate then set the plate on a piece of. cheesecloth for removing from water. This keeps the fish intact. Fish does not require the slow cooking given to many varieties of meat, as the connective tissues hold ing its fibres together are more gela tinous, very tender and soften at once under the application of heat. It is a very delicate food and negds only a short cooking time. Cook just until the meat will separate easily from the hopes and this time, of course, will depend on the size of the pieces of fish that you are cooking, but as a rule the cooking time is much short er than the time needed for meat of the sanje weight. Fish which is cooked quickly in the oven should not have any water put in the pan. When water is added the fish steams and the juice runs out to join the water in the pan, leaving a tasteless insipid fish and a highly flavored juice or gravy. Oily fish, such as salmon, shad, herring, lake trout are best .used for hot oven cooking. The deliciousness of fish can be captured only by perfect cooking and a skillful combining of other foods with it. Fish always needs a crisp vegetable or savory color and Salt One pound salt codfish, 2 small on ions, 4 tablespoons olive or salad oil, 2 lemons, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 2 tablespoons whipping cream, 1 half- pound canned shrimp, paprika, pars ley.
