Grand Central Oyster Bar Target Rock Oysters Recipes

Steps:

• In a double boiler with water boiling on high, combine clam juice, butter, celery salt, and Worcestershire sauce. Once the butter melts, add the oysters and cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly. Add chili sauce and stir well. Add half-and-half and cook for a few minutes until the cream is hot, but not boiling. Add a slice of white toast to a warm 9-inch soup plate and underline with a 10 5/8-inch plate. Using a slotted spoon, transfer oysters over toast in soup plate. Remove top pan and pour hot liquid contents over the oysters, filling to about 1/4-inch beneath the rim. Garnish with a dash of paprika. Serve with 1 package of oyster crackers.

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the top position and heat the broiler. Remove the (Royal Miyagi) oysters from their shells. Oysters should be on the half shell.
• Arrange the shells on a rimmed baking sheet and spread 1 heaping tablespoon of the creamed spinach into each shell. (You'll have some spinach left over.) Set the oysters on top of the spinach. Broil until the oysters are just starting to ruffle, about 1 minute. Remove from the broiler and nap each oyster with about 1 tablespoon hollandaise sauce. Broil until the sauce browns, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes.
• Using tongs, divide the oysters among 4 dinner plates and serve.
• Creamed Spinach.
• Place the spinach in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out the excess liquid.
• Transfer the spinach to a large skillet over medium heat and cook, stirring often, until the spinach is warm. Stir in the vin blanc sauce, then season with nutmeg and salt and stir again. Keep the spinach warm until you serve it.
• Hollandaise Sauce.
• Put the egg yolks and wine in a large stainless steel bowl set over a pot of simmering water. The bowl should not touch the water. Whisk vigorously until the yolks are light and tripled in volume. The consistency will be like a pudding, and the yolks will make a ribbon that sits on the surface for 3 seconds when you lift the whisk. Be careful not to scramble the eggs as you whisk; make sure to whisk along the sides of the bowl, and take the bowl off the heat periodically.
• Set the bowl on the counter-on a damp kitchen towel to keep it steady-and whisk in the butter in a very slow, steady stream. Don't add the butter too quickly, or the sauce will break. Once all the butter is added, whisk in the lemon juice, Tabasco, and salt.
• Keep the sauce warm until you're ready to serve it.

Steps:

• In a deep saucepan heat the butter, paprika, celery salt & Worcestershire sauce. When the butter is bubbling, add the Oysters & liquid and simmer until the edges curl, add milk and bring the liquid to the boiling point. Pour the stew into a soup bowl and top with a little paprika and 1 teaspoon butter.
