Ingredients

  • one quart of oysters
  • one half pound of butter
  • one half hour

Directions

1

Put the oysters in a stew pan, with a lump of butter ; when the oysters come to a boil, put in a thickening of flour and water, salt and pepper. Serve in a covered dish.

2

A FINE OYSTER PIE,

3

Make a rich puff paste ; and, after having greased the baking dish, line with the paste. Then season one quart of oysters with pepper and salt, one half pound of butter, and half a tea-cup of bread crumbs ; put this in with the oysters (without the liquor), and cover with paste (in Strips.) This pie will bake in one half hour ; if in baking the crust browns too fast, put over it paper doubled ; if it looks dry, pour in some of the liquor, which must be boiled. Serve immediately, as paste is better when just from the oven.
