raw oysters is a bit like liver&onion. there's people who do, and people who don't . . .
I was pleasantly surprised at the 'oyster event' (above) - the cold water oysters seem firmer, crisper and with a more pleasant saltiness.
the problem is memorizing all the different types so one knows what to prefer . . .
our church did a ham&oyster dinner fund raiser - we've moved since, so I had to 'recreate'....
corn breaded oysters, country ham, slaw and limas....
