FISH, OYSTERS AND GAME
BAKED SHAD
Prepare the fish, thoroughly cleansing the inside from as small an opening as convenient; then take sufficient bread crumbs, salt, pepper, parsley, and butter or lard. Mix up with beaten yolk of an egg, and fill the fish with it; now sew it up or fasten a string around it; put it in a dripping pan, pour over it a little water, some butter or lard, and bake same as a fowl. Bake from l hour to 1 1/4 hours. Garnish with parsley or celery.
