     2    Celery rib
     1    Parsley root
     1    Onion; quartered
     5    Peppercorns
     1    Bay leaf
     2 ts Salt
     6 c  ;Water
     2 lb Fish fillets (carp, sole,

   3/4 c  Horseradish, prepared
     1 ts Sugar
   1/4 ts Salt

 Combine vegetables, dry seasonings, and water in a
 saucepan or pot. Bring to a boil; simmer 20 minutes,
 then strain.

 Cook fish in the strained vegetable stock 6 to 10
 minutes, or until fish flakes easily. Remove fish from
 stock.  Arrange on serving platter and cover with
 plastic wrap.  Chill.

 Strain fish stock and reserve 3/4 cup for horseradish
 sauce; cool. For horseradish sauce, melt the butter in
 a saucepan, then blend in flour until smooth, making
 what the French would call a roux. Add the cooked fish
 stock gradually, stirring constantly.  Cook and stir
 until the sauce boils and becomes thick and smooth.

 Remove from heat and stir in horseradish, sugar, salt,
 sour cream, and eggs. Cool for 15 minutes. Pour the
 horseradish sauce over the chilled fish, and garnish
 with shredded lettuce.
