How To Make Broiled Shad

Prepare the fish, have a long griddle very hot, grease with butter, place the fish on it and broil well done, turning frequently. Brown nicely, occasionally basting with butter. Serve on a hot dish garnished with parsley and sliced lemon. Use butter freely.

How To Make Shad - Stuffed And Baked

Prepare the fish and rub with pepper and salt inside and out; cut off the crusts from half a loaf of stale bread, crumble fine and season with about 1 teaspoonful of salt, a small teaspoonful of celery seed, 1/2 teaspoonful of pepper, a small onion chopped fine and butter the size of an egg - cut into bits. Stuff the fish with this dressing, tie up firmly and lay into a baking-pan with enough water to barely cover, cut into the water a piece of butter as large as an egg, and place in the stove. When it begins to cook baste frequently until done. Garnish with hard-boiled egg cut into rings, and pour the gravy from the pan over the fish.

How To Make Planked Shad

Split a roe shad down the back and take out the back bone, lay the fish open and pepper and salt it, fasten to a hickory plank or some other tasteless wood, and set in a good, hot oven, baste with drawn butter, mushroom or other catsup, a pinch of salt and red pepper.
