Place perch in water, cooking the flesh until almost done, but not quite.
Remove and gut it. (Why would the cook 'draw' the fish at this point? why not

I think this is a good question. I would interpret "draw" as cut rather
than gut and clean but I have nothing concrete to base that on. Anyone
have a definative answer here?

I think I'd probably like the
taste of balsamic vinegar on this, too, but have no idea as to its
period-ness.

Yes, It would appear to be period. See this file in the FOOD section of
my SCA Rialto Files for more details:

Since this recipe mentioned verjuice, this file might also be of interest:
