Salt Mackerel

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no oven temperature. The 400°F (200°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.

  1. Soak the mackerel in water for 48 hours, changing the water once.

  2. Place the fish in a large pan without overlapping.

  3. Cover the mackerel with rich cream.

  4. Bake in the oven at 400°F (200°C) until the cream is a rich brown hue.

Transcribed from a scanned cookbook and modernised for today's kitchens. Where the book gave no heat or time, or said "a moderate oven", the temperatures and times here may be modern equivalents rather than the book's own figures.
