    Their blurb must mean "from this author". And Sam is a good editor - I subscribe to NYT Cooking as an add-on to my regular on-line subscription
    to the newspaper.

    But in the 1960s my mother gifted me with "The New York Times Cookbook
    by Craig Claiborne" dated 1961. I have adopted several favourite recipes
    from it. This is the first one I made/adapted from that volume.

    MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

    Title: Dave's Fish Parmesan
    Categories: Seafood, Cheese, Sauces, Mushrooms
    Yield: 8 Servings

    2 lb Fish filets or steaks
    26 oz Jar Onofrio's Basilico sauce
    - or Marinara sauce *
    Salt & fresh black pepper
    1 lb Mozzarella or Provolone;
    - sliced or shredded
    1 lb Crimini/Swiss Brown button
    - mushrooms, cleaned, sliced
    - reserving 8 buttons
    Fresh grated or shaved
    - Parmesan cheese
    8 tb Butter; melted

    Set oven @ 425ºF/220ºC.

    Spread a thin layer of sauce over bottom of baking dish
    place a layer of firm whitefish filets on the sauce. Salt
    and pepper the fish. Sprinkle some sliced mushrooms over
    fish and place cheese in a layer over the mushrooms.
    Spread a layer of sauce over the cheese and repeat the
    fish, mushroom, cheese layers until the baking dish is
    near full or you run out of fish.

    Top the last layer with cheese, the remaining sauce in
    the jar and the 8 reserved mushroom buttons. Grate or
    shave Parmesan over until you are ashamed of yourself or
    until you run out of cheese.

    Drizzle the melted butter over the cheese and bake until
    fish is done - 15 to 20 minutes

    * Available from www.onofrios.com. Or you may use Rao's,
    Filippo Berio, Classico, etc.

    I like the addition of the basil in the Basilico sauce. If
    you don't care for basil with your fish use the straight
    marinara. - UDD

    Adapted from a NYT Cookbook recipe and served many times
    from Dirty Dave's Kitchen.
