I used to be uncovered to oysters at a really younger age. I doesn’t suggest that I ever ate one, nonetheless. One of many traditions within the Brainard residence rising up was consuming selfmade Oyster Stew on Christmas Eve. I am unsure the place the recipe got here from, however I am guessing a few of you had it rising up too. I by no means ate the oysters, fortunately my dad and mom had been O.Okay. with my brother and I simply consuming the broth. Hey, put crackers in it and it was truly good! Whereas on trip in Florida, we ate at a pleasant restaurant and Holly determined to order an appetizer. Recent oysters.
As you may see from the image above, oysters aren’t essentially the most appetizing type of seafood to take a look at. Plus, I’ve an actual drawback with ‘slimy’ meals. It is one of many causes I hate mushrooms. However oysters take it to a complete new stage! We ordered a dozen contemporary oysters for our desk, and the response was what you may think. The youngsters had been grossed out, particularly the ladies. No approach had been they attempting these! Chase was curious and would later give in. Holly’s aunt was a fan and confirmed us the best way to eat them from the shell, or on a cracker.
That was the route I took. I used a small spoon to slip the oyster on to a cracker. Then, I topped it with some cocktail sauce, some lemon juice, and only a dab of horseradish. The outcome? One thing that had a texture that was gross, however a style I may tolerate. I truly had two! Chase had a few them as effectively. It was definitely one thing outdoors of my regular meals selections, however hey…it is trip! What higher time to attempt one thing new?
