That viii SerUe to Make

The Right Way to Make a
Ste,u and a Broth-Dry
Oyster Pan and Cooked a
la Crouton
By MRS. M. A. WILSON

4TyHE oyster is one of our most
4 democratic luxuries; it is i'll very
high favor in our most luxurious
restaurants, and yet it is held in
equal esteem in our most moderate
priced lunch rooms. Oysters are
sold both in and out Of the shell,
fresh and canned, and they may be
eaten and cooked in almost every
: <eonceivable way.
Among the best-known varieties
are the blue point, Buzzard Bays,
Cape Gods, Lynnhavens, Maurice
Rivers, Rockaways, saddle rocks, sea
tags, Shrewsberrys and cotuits and
Oak Creeks. Many of these titles
have really lost their real signiti-
canoe by trade misuses. Blue points,
for example, is often, though incor-
rectIy, applied to all small oysters,
irrespective Of their source.
The oyster season opens IN
September and continues on until
MAY. Three sizes are usually recog-
nized by the trade-half shells, the
smallest culls, the medium size and
the box, which is the largest. True
oyster lovers really prefer the large
Lynuhavens and others on the deep
sheh.
fThe epicure delights in eating raw
(oysters; and while this satisfies his
appetite, it is also understood that
the raw oyster virtually is assimi-
lated without taxing the digestion
Oysters may be found in almost
all parts of the civilized world, each
locality having its own special spe-
cies.
-~ Il is "a universal custom to omit
the oyster from the bill of fare dur.
ing the months of May, June, July
and August. We have in their
places the salt oyster and the clam
Oysters may be served on eithe,
the deep or fiat shell, on bed Of
finely crushed ice, with a slice OF
lemon, Worcestershire sauce, satsup
horseradish or tabasco sauce. Nice
crisp celery and toasted crackers
generally accompany raw oysters
Do not, runder any circumstances
cover the oyster with ice. Oyster
may be made into cocktails or ma,
be frozen.
To Make a Cocktail
One-half cupful of catsup,
One tablespoonful of Worcester
shire sauce,
One tablespoonful of grated onion
TtDo drops of tabasco sauce,
Juice of one-haif lemon.
Mix well and use for four oyste
cocktails, allowing five small oyster
per person.
Frappe Oysters
Place oysters in freezer an
freeze until soft mush, and the
serve in cocktail or sherbet glasse
with garnish of lemon and finel
minced parsley.
Oysters may also be prepared
many ways-stews, pans, broile
baked, fried and roasted are anon
the popular ways of preparing then
