PICKLED BOILED FISH (Kingston Hall) When a large rockfish has been boiled, a very delightful dish can be made out of what has been left over by taking 4 hard-boiled eggs, a tablespoonful of butter, and salt and red pepper to taste. Put a little butter in a frying-pan, and when it gets hot, put in the mixture and turn it over several times, until it is hot throughout, then serve. This makes a delightful entree. DEVILED TURKEY. (Kingston Hall) Take the first joints of the turkey and the back (which are not used generally the first day), and also the gizzard. Make in- cisions in each piece and fill them with butter, red and black pepper and salt to taste
