Bog-standard Oyster Stew

This is an extremely simply “low-country” (Carolinas) stew, meaning it is a thin broth with whole oysters and basically nothing else. Very traditional and purist. If you want it creamy or with veg and herbs, this is not what you’re looking for.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
In a 2+ quart pan, sauté the shallot in the butter over med-low heat until translucent, do not brown. Add the garlic.
- 2
Before the garlic can brown, pour in the oysters and oyster liquor. Let it reheat and simmer a few minutes to just cook the oysters through. Turn off the heat.
- 3
Wait a few minutes for the oyster and shallot mix to cool somewhat, then quickly pour in the quart of milk. From here on, don’t let the milk simmer for even a moment, so it stays perfectly smooth. Turn heat to low and start warming the stew back up.
- 4
As it begins to steam again, add salt and black pepper to taste, and a few or several drops of hot sauce. Stir. At the first sign of a bubble, kill the heat.

Fancy oyster dishes are great, but sometimes I want something unadorned and simple. Try it with plain white French bread.

When I was growing up this is one of the childhood meals we had. It was very rich and delicious often eaten with oyster crackers, or just saltine crackers. Its easy to make. My Mom would make this dish about once every other month especially on cool or cold evenings. This is such a comfort food. My late Older brother used to love this recipe, this and the tuna casserole also in my recipes here, were some His favorites. skunkmonkey101 -

Seafood Cream Stew Seafood Cream Stew
Salmon is great from autumn to winter.But rather than just grilling it, I tried preparing it in various ways.With that in mind, I wanted to make this heart-warming dish!If you add some carrots, it's even more full of vegetables! If you don't prepare the salmon and oysters before putting them in the pot, they won't cook through. This extra step for the salmon and oysters results in a truly delicious dish.

My Exotic Sea Food Stew My Exotic Sea Food Stew
I watched this Korean show titled “The Rules of the Jungle” in which few celebrities and the group leader named Byong Man Kim would go to remote places or islands and try to survive for 3 days or more. They have to either catch or fish for their foods and search for their seasoning, fruits, or vegetables. They also have to build their own dwelling. Very interesting show.In one of the episodes, Byong Man cooked some fish he caught in fresh coconut juice. And I said to myself that I should try that.Today is the day. 2choi -

California Farm Fish Stew Bouillabaise California Farm Fish Stew Bouillabaise
Now that excellent fish stock can be made from shrimp bouillion cubes, I no longer simmer whole fish overnight. The shrimp bouillion is used to make soup from braised tomatoes, carrots, celery, onion, garlic, potato, fennel, saffron, herbs, all fresh from the garden. Just before serving, frozen white fish, frozen cooked mussels and frozen raw shrimp are added. Served with Sour dough bread with a special sauce called rouille. Follow this 12 pint recipe even if you cook for only two people, so you have all ingredients in each pint portion for freezing. Hobby Horseman -
