Boiled Bass

Clean the fish well, put it in a saucepan with sufficient water to cover it, add salt, place the saucepan over the fire; after boiling a few minutes see if the fins are loose and can be removed readily; if so, take it from the pan, place on a platter, surrounding the fish with hard-boiled eggs. Serve with sauce.
