I will, of course, eat anything once - but honestly, fish custard? Fish custard? Fish custard...?

This is from the Essex Cookery Book, fourteenth edition, revised and enlarged by Margaret Hussey, 1938. Price twopence.

Cooked fish.
1 whole egg and 1 yolk.

Beat eggs and add warmed milk and pour over the fish.
Place in a moderate oven for 1/2 - 3/4 hour till just set.
Note - Canned Salmon may be used for this dish.
