Ingredients

  • one quart of large oysters
  • one pound of water crackers
  • one-half cup sweet milk
  • two teaspoons yeast powder
  • three eggs
  • salt
  • pepper

Directions

1

Drain one quart of large oysters ; roll one pound of water crackers ; beat light three eggs, and add to the eggs one-half cup sweet milk. In a separate dish put your rolled crackers, seasoned with salt and pepper, and about two teaspoons yeast powder. Mix thoroughly; dip the oysters, one by one, first in the crackers, then in egg, and again in crackers, place on a dish ready for cooking. (Fix everything before beginning to fry.) Have ready enough lard in frying-pan, a quantity such that your oysters will not touch bottom, and hot enough to cook them quickly. In a few minutes they will be as plump as doughnuts, and ready to serve.
