Broiled Shad's Roe

Wash a shad's roe in cold water, wipe it dry on a clean towel, place it between the bars of a double wire gridiron, thickly buttered, and broil until brown on both sides. When cooked serve it with butter, lemon juice and parsley, pepper and salt. A garnish of sliced cucumbers may be served with the broiled roe. A dish of mashed potatoes should also accompany it.
