How to make

Creamed Oysters
- Make the sauce of cream if you have it, and if not use a very heaping tablespoonful of butter in the white sauce. Keep this hot.
- Drain off the oyster−juice and wash the oysters by holding them under the cold−water faucet. Strain the juice and put the oysters back in it, and put them on the fire and let them just simmer till the edges of the oysters curl; then drain them from the juice again and drop them in the sauce, and add a little more salt (celery−salt is nice if you have it), and just a tiny bit of cayenne pepper.
- You can serve the oysters on squares of buttered toast, or put them in a large dish, with sifted bread−crumbs over the top and tiny bits of butter, and brown in the oven.
- Or you can put them in small dishes as they are, and put a sprig of parsley in each dish.
