Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Combine the dry spices. Sprinkle a small amount of the spice mixture in a small ovenproof crock that will allow you to pack the fish tightly. Top with a layer of shad, cover with a thin layer of rosemary leaves, and sprinkle with spice mixture. Continue layering the fish and seasonings until you have used all the fish. Pour in the vinegar and water. Cover with foil and top with pie weights. Bake for 6 hours. Cool. Remove from vinegar and serve or wrap in plastic. Keeps in the refrigerator for 3 days.
