Grams Oyster Stew

The way oyster stew was made when I was a kid was always quick, easy and basic in my Gram's kitchen. Very few ingredients....the flavors were cream, butter and oysters, then top it with butter. I had to rattle family memories to get exactly how she did it. Read more We all watched her but nothing much was written down. We had one family member that always had to sprinkle cayenne on top but the rest of us just enjoyed it the way it was. See less
