"As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy, and to make plans."--Ernest Hemingway

I used to prepare this in advance and then heat and serve. This is a recipe I learned from my mother Angela Cassara. I used to make it when I taught school in the afternoons and we had leftovers for several days. Good winter meal!
