Fish: 18. Salmon with Sweet Herbs

Mix a piece of butter with some chopped parsley, shallots, sweet herbs, mushrooms, pepper and salt. Put some of this in the bottom of the dish you intend to send to table; then some thin slices of salmon upon it, and the remainder of the butter and herbs upon the salmon. Strew it over with breadcrumbs, then baste it with butter and bake it in the oven. When it is done; drain the fat from it, and serve it up with a clear relishing sauce.
