Baked Bluefish, Florentine

Neatly clean and wipe well a three-pound piece boned bluefish. Place it in a lightly buttered tin. Season with a teaspoon salt and half teaspoon paprika. Spread a tablespoon melted butter over the fish and set in the oven to bake for fifteen minutes.

Thoroughly strain a pint canned spinach. Season with half teaspoon salt, one teaspoon fine sugar and half teaspoon white pepper; then hash up very fine and spread over the fish. Bake for ten minutes longer. Remove, dress on a hot dish, pour a gill tomato sauce around the dish, squeeze the juice of a sound lemon over the spinach and serve.
