Soucby. — Dabs, plaice, flounders, or any freshwater fish, are good for a souchy. Boil the fish in about 2 quarts water ; stand aside the largest, and boil down 1 or 2 to rags in the liquor ; boil in it also some parsley. Pulp the fish which is boiled down, and chop the parsley fine. Return them to the liquor, heat the fish in it, and serve it in a deep dish accompanied by thin slices of brown bread and butter
