A tablespoonful of walnut or mushroom catchup, or of Worcestershire sauce, may be added if liked.
_Serve very hot._ Before sending a baked fish to table, take out the skewer.

When done, it should have a handsome brown crust.

If pork is disliked, it may be omitted altogether, and a tablespoonful of butter substituted in the stuffing.
Basting should be done as often as once in ten minutes, else the skin will blister and crack.

Where the fish is large, it will be better to sew the body together after stuffing, rather than to use a skewer.

The string can be cut and removed before serving.
If any is left, it can be warmed in the remains of the gravy, or, if this has been used, make a gravy of one cup of hot water, thickened with one teaspoonful of flour or corn-starch stirred smooth first in a little cold water.
