Gurnet, Boiled

Empty and cleanse the fish thoroughly. Cut off the fins and gills, and boil it gently in salted water. Serve on a napkin, garnish the dish with parsley, and send plain melted butter, or anchovy, parsley, crab, or piquante sauce to table with it. Time, about half an hour. Probable cost, uncertain. Sufficient, a moderate-sized gurnet for three persons.
