Slice Of Salmon, Boiled Recipe ingredients

To prepare this Slice Of Salmon, Boiled Recipe, first butter a piece of cloth large enough to take a slice of salmon; tie the cloth securely at the corners and lower it into a saucepan containing enough lukewarm water to cover the fish; add a teaspoonful of salt, cover the saucepan, and heat quickly to the boiling point, then let cook six or eight minutes. Lift up the cloth with a fork under the knot; let drain well, then remove to a tin plate, untie the knot and turn the fish on to a hot, folded napkin, set on a hot plate. Cook other fish in the same manner, the time of cooking depending upon the thickness of the fish. A thick piece of salmon weighing two or three pounds should be cooked nearly half an hour. Serve with boiled potatoes and egg or caper sauce.
