Sturgeon Fish Recipe
Take one slice of sturgeon 2 inches thick; let it stand in hot
water 5 minutes; drain, put it in a bowl and add a gill of vinegar,
2 table spoonfuls of melted butter, ½ a tea-spoonful of salt,
a saltspoonful of black pepper and the juice of ½ a lemon; let
it stand six hours, turning it occasionally; drain and dry on a
napkin; dip it in egg; roll in bread crumbs and fry, or rather boil,
in piping hot fat. Beat the yolks of 2 raw eggs, add a tea-spoonful
of French mustard, and by degrees, ½ of the marinade, to make
a smooth sauce, which serve with the fish.
