Weren't eels usually boiled or steamed?

I messed up, I meant Jellied Eels.

yeh, which is how you get the liquor they are served with at the Pie, mash and eel shops

Fried eels would be too palatable

I'd say that copious amounts of hard liquor would be the only way to get me to consume any boiled or steamed fish :-)
