Ingredients:

White fleshed fish, cut in chunks
2 quarts water
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup salt
Juice of 1 lemon
Melted butter and lemon juice for dipping

Directions:

Combine water, salt, sugar and lemon juice in large kettle; bring to boil. Drop in the fish and boil, just until fish rises to the surface. Serve with melted butter and lemon juice. Leftovers make a good "Mock Lobster" salad.

This is the way we do it in Alaska! Halibut is the preferred fish, but cod or burbot work well also.
