Cod Pie, Fresh

Take a deep pie-dish, and fill it three-parts with pieces of fresh cod about two inches square. Season them with salt, cayenne, and grated nutmeg, lay two dozen oysters on the top, and put two or three lumps of butter over all. Cover with a good crust, and bake the pie in a moderate oven. Time to bake, about forty minutes. Probable cost of cod, 8d. per pound, when plentiful. A pie made with three pounds of cod, and two dozen oysters, will be sufficient for six persons.
