Forcemeat for Carp
Prepare from a stale loaf half a pound of crumbs, and mince one dozen oysters, divested of beards; add two ounces of finely-shredded suet, and the same of bacon or ham, and good fresh butter. Flavour with salt, nutmeg, a dessert-spoonful of savoury herbs, and a little parsley, all of which should be minced small. Blend together with three well-beaten eggs. Stuff the fish, and sew up securely. Probable cost, 2s. Sufficient for one fish.
