About This Book

A concise cooking pamphlet offering fifteen oyster recipes, each presented with precise ingredient amounts and step-by-step techniques for methods such as curried, sautéed, boiled, Newburg-style, keebobbed, pan-baked tarts, creamed preparations, and bisque. Practical advice on draining, handling, seasoning, and timing recurs throughout, with brief directions for stovetop, broiling, and oven cooking and occasional serving suggestions. The collection emphasizes simple sauces and clear procedures, functioning as a compact, instructional reference for preparing oysters in a variety of presentations.

OYSTERS ON MUSHROOMS

Drain twenty-five fat oysters, and put two lardoons of bacon through each oyster. Cut the fat part of ham or bacon into tiny strips; use a small larding needle, and just take one stitch in soft part, then another, allowing the ends to hang. Dip each oyster in bread crumbs, then in egg, and then again in crumbs. Fry in smoking hot oil. Have ready a platter of baked mushrooms; put the oysters on top, cover with brown sauce, and serve.
