Boiled Salt Mackerel

Cut away the fins and soak in fresh water for two hours a fine, good-sized salt mackerel. Drain well and then plunge it into a pan with two quarts boiling water and allow to boil for ten minutes. Remove, drain well, dress on a hot dish with a folded napkin and serve with a little hot melted butter separately.
