Great Great Aunt Jessie's 1940's Fried Oysters


Another selection from my great great aunt jessie's recipe scribbles. I copy them exactly as she wrote them. I have not tried these but keeping for preservations sake. I do not have exact prep or cooking times to share, i would ask, but aunt jessie doesn't talk much anymore. She passed a long long time ago. Recipe yields as much or as little as you put in it.

Steps


Put oysters on some paper toweling so that some of the moisture may be taken up.
Roll in cracker crumbs then slightly beaten egg and milk mixture , then in cracker crumbs.
Fry in deep fat when the test is given for uncooked foods allow to fry until brown.
Place on brown paper.
Salt and pepper and serve while hot with tarter sauce and garnish.
I had to put measurements in to get recipe approved but her.
