All can be added at once, but must be
stirred constantly. After the sauce
has thickened, the seasoning can be
added, seasoning to taste. To the
sauce add a dozen oysters. Sauce for
creamed oysters should not be very
thick
After the oysters are added let them
cook about three minutes in the sauce.
In preparing fresh oysters for the ia
bic, each oyster should be fingered
carefully to prevent pieces of shell
from adhering to them. Use your judg
ment in seasoning to taste.

the cheese becomes stringy, use one
teaspoonful of baking powder. Stir
constantly till smooth, then add one
W
Worcestershire sauce and if you like
the flavor of catsup, one teaspoonful.
Serve on four slices of toast
PANIED OYSTERS.
For panned oysters take one table
spoonful of butter and put in the chat
ing dish, use fresh oysters when posi-
bic, add them to the butter and cook
till the edges begin to curl, then add
some liquor taken from the oysters.
This will cook from a dozen to a dozen
and half oysters. Serve on toast
There should be enough of the liquor to
moisten the toast when served. Sea-
