Fried Fish

Fried Fish

by Emma Pauline Juliane Lemke Thiesfeld

fish (whatever kind you can get)
flour
shortening

Dip pieces of fish in flour and then fry in shortening until done.  Also works with pheasants or whatever other kind of meat you can get.

~During the Great Depression people managed with whatever food they could find.  Pa Thiesfeld seemed to have a knack for poaching pheasants or fish which he then brought home for Emma to cook for their family of 14 children. (In reality, there were really not more than 10 children living at home at any one time.)
