"As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy, and to make plans."--Ernest Hemingway

This was served to me by Frank McGill, Mary Sue Polk's brother. At 82 years of age, he prepared a gourmet meal to include this delicious recipe. We stayed at his camp and had a wonderful time. Great memories!!!!
