shore 1 n The traditional Newfoundland way of making fish inherited from the Bristol men, to whom salt was an expensive commodity, requires light salting, very careful handling, washing, pressing, and prolonged sun-drying to achieve the aromatic, amber perfection of a good 'shore cure.' (Ship- cured fish had to be heavily salted because there was no space to dry it. ) PRINTED ITEM DNE-cit G.M.Story JAN 1970 JH 1/70 Used I and Sup Used I 3 Used I COAST n, INSHORE, LANDWASH, EASTER, FRENCH, NORTH(ERN), SOUTH(ERN), STRAIGHT, TREATY, WESTERN, SHOREMAN, CURE, MERCHANTABLE, SPANISH FISH, SKIFF, SHOREYER, SEDENTARY (FISHERY), PIGEON, SEA~, TRAP',PLANTATION 2, ROOM, PUNT, BAY SEAL. ~ boat/plantation/boss/cod(fish)/fish/ fast(ener)/crew/crowd/cure(d fish)/duck/fast/fisherman/fishery/fishing/gang/ herring/ice /train/liner/labrador/net/seal/season/skipper/work.
