=Puree the flounder (or cod), adding first the egg yolks then the very soft butter.(The butter must be the consistency of mayonnaise, but not melted.) When this is smooth add the egg whites. Let mixture rest in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
Incorporate cream gently. Add rest of ingredients, folding in fish (After the cream is added the mixture must be handled gently.)
