Ingredients




1 1/2 pounds Haddock or cod fillets
1 1/2 teaspoons Cornstarch
1 1/2 cups Milk
2 Eggs, well beaten
Salt & pepper to taste
2 tablespoons Butter, melted

Preparation

1 This one shows true New England ingenuity. There they have a thousand ways of serving cod or haddock, and all seem to be delicious. This is a great cold evening dish. 2 In a saucepan, boil the fish just until it can be flaked or easily broken apart. Drain and flake the fish. 3 Dissolve the cornstarch in the milk. Add the eggs, salt and pepper to taste, and the melted butter. Place the fish in a buttered casserole and pour the milk and egg mixture over the top. Bake, uncovered, in a 350 oven for 45 minutes, or until the pudding is set. 4 Traditionally, this is served with Johnnycake (see recipe) and mustard pickles.
