Oyster Stew
1-cup
oysters
1-pint
milk
1-tablespoon
butter
Salt
and pepper to taste
Put
milk on to boil while you are preparing the oysters. Put oysters in a colander
and pour over them, ¼ cup cold water and drain. Strain oyster liquid and put on
stove; as it boils remove scum, and when clear add to milk, to which has been
added the butter. Season, add oysters and let them simmer until plump. If
oysters are cooked to long they become tough.
