1 pound salted codfish
1-1/2 cups cold milk

Soak the salted codfish in cold water for at least 8 hours.

While this is cooking, in a small bowl, break an egg. Add the flour and blend until smooth with a fork.  Add some hot milk from the fish
and stir quickly and then add this back to the pot.  Stir constantly until thickened on low heat.   Remove from heat and add the butter and mix gently.  Serve with either buttered  boiled potatoes or buttered mashed potatoes
