Ingredients
- 1 pint of milk
- 1 pint of oysters
- 4 teaspoonfuls flour
- 4 tablespoonfuls butter
- salt
- pepper
Directions
1 pint of milk. 1 pint of oysters. 4 teaspoonfuls flour.
4 tablespoonfuls butter. Salt and pepper to taste.
Put on the milk in the double boiler to scald. Melt the butter and stir the flour into it. When the milk has scalded, stir the butter and flour into it, stirring until it is smooth. Cook for ten minutes. Wash and pick over the oysters, put them on to cook in their own liquor. Cook until they begin to grow plump and the edges curl. Put them at once in the thickened milk and season. Serve. It should not be seasoned until the oysters are added, as some oysters are more salty than others.
