Ling, Baked

Cut four pounds of ling into slices, and put these into a baking-dish. Dredge well with flour, and sprinkle over them two tea-spoonfuls of salt, half a tea-spoonful of white pepper, and half a tea-spoonful of pounded mace. Divide three ounces of fresh butter into small pieces, and place these here and there upon the fish. Rub a table-spoonful of flour smoothly into half a pint of milk; pour this over the fish, and bake in a moderate oven. Serve on a hot dish, and garnish with toasted sippets. Time to bake, one hour. Probable cost, 1s. 8d. Sufficient for half a dozen persons.
