The following is a recipe from my friend, Pam’s dad, Hal.  This oyster stew is creamy and delicious!  The Schaeffers like to enjoy it with ham sandwiches before Christmas.

Oyster Stew

Blend the following to paste:

1 1/2 Tblsp Flour
1 1/2 Tsp Salt
Dash of Tabasco (or a few shakes to taste)
2 Tblsp Cold Water

Stir into the paste

1 pint of oysters and the liquor from the oysters
Add 1/2 Stick Butter

Simmer the above for 5 minutes or longer until the edges of the oysters curl

Separately scald

2 cups of milk
2 cups of heavy cream (you may substitute Half & Half if you want)

Pour the scalded milk into the oyster mix, stir.

Remove from heat and let stand

Serve and ENJOY
