Oyster?Swiss Chard Gratin with Country Bacon Recipe | Epicurious.com
"Editor's note: This recipe is part of a special Thanksgiving menu created by chefs Allison Vines-Rushing and Slade Rushing of MiLa restaurant in New Orleans. Swiss chard is a winter green that is in season just as oysters are at their peak. As the weather cools, the chard gets sweeter and the oysters get saltier, achieving a beautiful balance of earth and sea when together in the same bite. We use big, sweet Louisiana oysters, but any oyster will do...."
