Oyster Stew
If you’ve got a bunch of left over fresh oysters particularly the medium and large sized Oysters, a great alternative to using them is in oyster stew. This is a great satisfying soup on a cold fall or winter day. Oyster stew is different than clam chowder in that my Oyster stew doesn’t include potatoes or lots of other ingredients. Also, the soup is more milky than creamy. By keeping the stew simple you can enjoy the delicate oyster flavor.
Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add celery and onion and sauté until soft. Add milk and Half-n-Half and heat, stirring almost continuously until just before boiling. Do not boil or burn. Add oysters and their liquid. Add white pepper. Continue to carefully cook until edges of oysters begin to curl. Again, do not let mixture boil. Finally season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve.
