Bloater savoury

2 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 Bloaters
2 ounces Butter, softened
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
Cayenne pepper to taste
2 Egg yolks
A squeeze of Lemon juice

Directions

Grill the bloaters on both sides, then remove the skin and bones and flake the flesh. Add the butter to the fish and blend well. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce and cayenne pepper. Bind with the egg yolks and lemon juice. Sieve to produce a smooth paste and turn into a dish. Serve with fingers of hot toast or Suffolk Rusks.

This hot spicy paste was very popular in Edwardian times, when it was served with toast or Suffolk Rusks as an appetizer or a savoury. If bloaters are not available, it can be made with smoked mackerel.
