Oyster Omelet
List of Ingredients
12 oysters
pepper and salt to taste
3 tablespoons cream
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons strained oyster liquor
1 tablespoon flour
For this dish, prepare the oyster filling before beginning to cook the
omelet. Strain the oysters and cut into small pieces. Make a white
sauce from the butter, flour, oyster liquor, cream, and seasonings.
When hot and creamy, put in the chopped oysters and cook a few
minutes. Set the sauce over boiling water to keep hot while making
the omelet. When ready pour over the oyster mixture, fold, and serve
immediately. Make your favorite omelet recipe and use this sauce on
it.
Recipe
This recipe came from an old cook book I inherited from a former
mother-in-law which she received as a bride. You would be amazed to
see the recipes in it and also teaching young brides how to wash, iron
sew and such 100 years ago. Mrs Curtis Cookbook.
