402 | Broiled Shad’s Roe, with Bacon.
—Procure six pieces of fresh shad’s roe, wipe them thoroughly with a towel, then lay them on a dish, and season with a good pinch of salt and two tablespoonfuls of sweet oil. Roll them gently to avoid breaking, then arrange them on a broiler, and broil them for six minutes on each side. Take them off the fire, lay them on a hot dish, and pour a gill of maître d’hôtel butter (No. 145) over; decorate with six slices of broiled bacon (No. 754), and six quarters of lemon; then send to the table.
