DON'T KISS ME !  Sometimes the holiday tradition gets in the way. Even so far as to separate couples causing marital strife. JD & Alex like oyster stew.... Max and I would rather eat anything else BUT Oysters.  HOWEVER.... I dice up a few potatoes and bring to a slow boil.  I have a container of oysters from the store.  I dump the raw oysters in with the cooking potatoes for a brief boil... not too long or they will get tough.  I add a cup of cream, a few tablespoons of butter and some whole milk. Warm the milk just enough to melt the butter before you serve it.  This is how they like it served....  Max & I had beef stir fry over rice |

[SIZE 3]No oysters for me, please. I know somebody who slurps them. Is there some stir fry left for me? Happiness is when what you think, what you say, what you do are in harmony - M. Gandhi

I love Oysters......My favourite way to cook them is to place the shells.....deep shell down on the cooler edge of a camp-fire......When the shell opens, remove top shell and let it simmer and evaporate.....when the juice is gone, add a spoonful of garlic butter and let it sizzle for a few more minutes.......a dab of Sriracha and done....

Living in Oyster country, where you gather them at low tide and cook them immediately is the only way I've had them.....Many Winters, living off-grid, unable to go to town or go fishing because of the storms, there was these beautiful Oysters....This prime source of protein just sitting on the beach......I learned many ways to cook them.....just rinsed, dried, rolled in flour with salt and pepper and crisp-fried was our usual method.....An Oyster pot pie is good too.....I also smoked and canned them...... I have never bought Oysters in a store and I don't think I would like them either.....I discard the dead ones, only eat the freshly shucked ones.

By the way, thank you for putting up with my radical opinions.....I appreciate your patience and will try to keep it down to a dull roar in the future......

The stir fry for me too please. 
| ||

I'm not fussy. I am sure I would like both dishes. I have always liked oysters and can really get down with a beef stir fry over rice. Both great meals, Chef Bret.

It was cloudy with very light snow, -5C (23F) all day. I went to the city on an emergency banking mission and also to assuage one of the mortgage loan sharks into accepting a half payment because I had run short of funds. Picked up a couple sacks of slices and a carrot to get me through the month.

Had more leftover turkey, cranberries, dinner rolls, and smashed potatoes for supper tonight. Will have some apple pie with dark chocolate truffle ice cream a bit later.
