Generally, I just discard it but you can add a little in with the greens as they cook if they seem like they are sticking and need a little extra moisture. Hope all enjoy!

I can definitely see that keeping it simple works well, and agree I think I prefer this dish, at least, without the crumbs.

For that matter, it was made without the Pernod. (It's not like anise-flavored liquor is present in the average kitchen!) They were as simple as a mix of chopped spinach and parsley topped onto oysters shucked, but remaining on-the-half-shell, with a single drop of hot sauce, and a single drop of anise extract put onto each oyster...then broiled and served with a slice of lemon to squeeze on the oyster before eating.. I suppose a bit of garlic powder, and chopped scallion could be added, but most recipes go overboard with additions that only serve to mask, rather than enhance, the oyster flavor. Also, I have tried making this using oyster shell I've saved, and canned oyster (I mean actually canned...not the fresh pre-shucked oysters sold in groceries) and, while OK, this was a disappointment compared to fresh oysters.

Thanks Julie, I can understand they are not something everyone would like. I do think these are easier, though, maybe since they are cooked but they don't dry out. Either way I hope someone in your household gets to enjoy these!

I can understand that, you do definitely want to get fresh oysters. I am lucky with a great fish market nearby. Hope you manage to persuade him to let you give them a go!

Great recipe to share for this theme, Caroline.

Our son has an oyster farm and our family gatherings tend to turn into an oyster fest. It's hard to say what is the favorite but Oysters Rockefeller is right up there. Your version is beautiful. We may have to pull a few oysters and try it this week.

I wish I liked oysters but no matter how hard I try I don't. John, on the other hand, loves them and this would make one impressive appetizer for him and some of our friends that love them too. Your blog looks great!

My husband loves these, but I can't convince him to let me make them at home. He doesn't think the oysters are fresh enough.... Maybe I"ll just make them and see what he thinks then!
