Catholic Recipe: Fish Salad
Traditionally, Christmas Eve was one of the strictest fast days of the year. An appropriate lunch is this traditional fish salad. This was the Trapp Family's recipe.
DIRECTIONS
Combine fish, shrimp, onion and celery, season with salt and pepper. Sieve the egg yolks, mix with whipped cream, mayonnaise, and lemon juice. Combine the fish mixture with dressing. Serve in individual bowls lined with lettuce, garnish with a dash of paprika and a few capers. (This makes about eight servings.)
