Methods of Cooking Fish

Fish may be boiled, broiled, stewed, fried or baked. Visitors to New Orleans declare that nowhere is Fish cooked in such palatable ways as in this old Franco-Spanish city. The experience of generations of fine old cooks has been brought to bear upon the preparation of the Fish found in the Louisiana waters and those of the Mexican Gulf, with the result that a Creole code of rules for the cooking of even the smallest and less important Fish prevails, and it is considered little short of barbarous to depart from it.
