Boiled Halibut. Pour into a shallow pan boiling water to the depth of one-third of an inch, and in it lay a five-pound piece of halibut, the black skin down. In two minutes remove the fish from the wafer, and scrape the black substance from the skin. Now wash the fish in cold water, and after laying it on a plate, set the plate in a stew-pan and cover with boiling water. Add a table-spoonful of vine- gar, a table-spoonful of salt, two slices of carrot, and a small onion
