Oyster Stew With Vegetables Recipes

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic, salt and pepper; cook and stir until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Stir in the milk and half-and-half, and transfer to the top of a double boiler. If you do not have one, set the pan of soup over a pan of simmering water.
• When the milk is hot, add the oysters and heat just until the oysters are opaque. Do not allow to boil. Season with fresh parsley, cayenne pepper and sherry. Go easy on the sherry until you are sure you like it in the stew.

Steps:

• Place the carrots, potatoes, onion, celery, and bouillon cubes in a stock pot; pour enough water over the vegetables to cover. Turn heat to medium-high and bring to a boil; allow to boil for 30 minutes. Add the oysters with their juices and 1 teaspoon black pepper; boil another 3 minutes; reduce heat to low. Stir in the evaporated milk and butter; cook and stir until the butter melts completely. Season with salt and pepper to serve.

Steps:
