Oyster Soup Recipe

Recipe Photo

"This pureed soup is a wonderful starter course served with crusty hard rolls or as a light lunch accompanied by greens and a fruit salad. Make sure to get the freshest small oysters that can be found; they are the focal point of this dish and need to be of the highest possible quality. Cook’s note: White pepper is a little hot and spicy; use black pepper if a mellow taste is preferred...."
