Creamed Codfish
Pour boiling water over a package of prepared codfish in the
colander and drain it. Heat a frying-pan, and, while you are
waiting, beat the yolk of an egg. Squeeze the water from the
fish. Put one tablespoonful of butter in a hot pan, and when it
bubbles put in two tablespoonfuls of flour, and stir and rub till
all is smooth. Pour in slowly a pint of hot milk, and mix well,
rubbing in the flour and butter till there is not a single lump.
Then stir in the fish with a little pepper, and when it boils
put in the egg. Stir it all up once, and it is done. Put in a
hot covered dish, or on slices of buttered toast.
