Ingredients

  • a pint of oysters to each pint of liquid
  • a piece of butter the size of an e^^ in small pieces
  • one-third water
  • 64 sauces
  • butter the size of an e^^ in small pieces

Directions

1

Separate the oysters from the juice; if there is not enough of the latter, add one-third water, season it and set where it will boil, thicken with a little flour, mixed smoothly with milk. When it has boiled several minutes, add half a pint of oysters to each pint of liquid; let them scald through, and remove from the fire. Cut a piece of butter the size of an e^^ in small pieces, and put in. Serve immediately with poultry.

Another way is to put the oyster juice in the gravy of the fowl, and thicken with oysters and a little flour.
