Charbroiled oysters
Hi Jerry,
Charbroiled oysters... hummmm... I'll look up a recipe for that too. You would think someone in New Orleans would specialize in oyster ice cream... I have a cousin who I should call!
When you go to New Orleans, go to Dragos for your charbroiled oysters... they came up with that yummy craze. Just remember Mardi Gras is in full swing; you don't want to get tangeled in parade routes!
Cheers,
Helen
Oyster ice cream
Dearest friends, I am looking for an oyster ice cream recipe. I've not eaten it before but would like to take a stab making it. I am betting that there's at least one here who has eaten it, perhaps even venturing to make it... lol... sounds like Andrew......
Hello elanoftroy!
Hello Helen, Hope all is well, good to have you back on the forums! The most interesting ice cream I've had is the garlic ice cream at the Stinking rose here in L.A. Didn't care for it but there are fans out there. Oyster ice cream doesn't sound appetizin...
Garlic ice cream?
Ming, Garlic ice cream sounds like a stretch to keep zombies and vampire at bay. lol! I've been experimenting with some new recipes. As a kid I enjoyed shrimp stuffed artichokes which you can't get any more... I think I've found the perfect shrimp stuffin...
Yes!
The Stinking Rose is a restaurant that is in the old Lawry's Prime Rib location on LaCienega (The original is in San Fran). As the name implies, the items on the menu are prepped with garlic inspired recipes. Good luck with the ice cream, let us know how ...
Sounds adventurous ...
Hi Helen, oyster icecream sounds adventurous, so I'm in ... although I generally prefer my icecreams as a sweet desert and not a savory entree! Durian and botrytis icecream are about is wild as I have gone. I see there are a few recipes on the web for thi...
I can hardly wait...
Andrew, Sounds like an awesome new thread. I was confident you had oyster ice cream before since you always seekout the most interesting fare. Let me know if you stumble upon further info on making oyster ice cream, please. Fondly, Helen
Hey stranger...
Glad to see you back :) Not heard of oyster ice cream so do let me know what you think, had my first oyster with pplater and G in London a few weeks ago and it was better than it looked..!! Yours, Andy.
Simply delish...
Andy, I am shocked you have never had oyster before... now to pplater and Graham...what are you doing sharing our delicious oysters? Now, there's less for us! lol! Just kidding.... I'm glad you found it better tasting than looking. Smiling, Helen
hi Helen, glad to see you back with us.
i only had my first raw oyster in october with bimbeano and his mate mr b so when Andy, pplater and i went to the covent garden branch of the same restaurant i thought Andy ought to try one. its a nice entree before our starters arrived. as for oyster ice...
Nice to be back!
Graham, I'm surprised to hear you are a newbie to oysters also. Are they not also bountiful in England? I'm glad you enjoyed them and went as far as sharing your experience with Andy. My youngest daughter is in from Boston this long weekend so we can mark...
hi Helen, it doesnt seem...
hi Helen, it doesnt seem a year since Eddie passed away. i hope you are doing ok. as for oysters, they are found around the coast, but not in such huge numbers and are bought up by all the top restaurants. at one time oysters were poor mans food, but not ...
Hi
Hi Helen, How are you? I remembered hearing about this on NPR last year. I dug up the following link that may help. J. Ps: how's your grand daughter?
You don't start with a roux
Valuable article.. now I have an idea what to aim at. I like the final touch... a raw oyster on top.. yum! Jane finally started walking as we started the new year. She's doing well, just growing too fast. Now, hows your little man? Sincerely, Helenf
Growing too quickly...
His smile now shows teeth! ;-) Can't believe it will be a year in a month. J.
Time is passing too quickly
J, I bet he is great fun... give him a big kiss for me. Warmly, Helen
Hi Helen
Good to hear from you. If anyone has made oyster ice cream you would think it would have happened in New Orleans. Sounds like something they should make at the Acme Oyster House. Now you have me thinking about the delicious chargrilled oysters on the half...

No problem
My friend, I won't ask you to try it as long as you don't ask me to try escargo! lol! Caio, Helen
Let me know when you're on the lookout for . . .
. . . a guacamole recipe, Helen. Glad to see you back!
I heard through the grapevine. ..
Art, I heard your guacamole is the bees knees! Yes I would love to have your recipe! I bet everyone here has a favorite dish they like to cook. Wouldn't it be grand to have a purists cookbook? Just a thought. I've kept up with my pool playing but I'm spen...
The cold spell is over . . .
. . . and we're back to our usual temperate weather, Helen. Glad to hear you're still playing pool! Here's the guacamole recipe: 4 large ripe Hass avocados 1 bunch of green onions 1 firm Roma tomato 1 jalapeño 1/2 lemon Tony Chachere's cajun seasoning gar...
I'm generally not for the savory ice creams...
...although I have recently had bacon/chocolate chip and salted caramel ice creams and they were excellent. I prefer my oysters raw or broiled with cream cheese and green onions. Cheers, Daos
True for me to
Daos, I think this is more of a frozen soup type... Its worth a try, especially if it's topped with a raw oyster. Warmly, Helen
