To Roast Canned Oysters.
Drain them. Put them in a spider which is very hot; turn them in a moment, so that they may cook on both sides. It only takes a few seconds to cook them. Put them on a hot plate in which there are pepper, salt, and a little hot melted butter. They should be served immediately. They have the flavor of the oyster roasted in the shell.
Some cook them in this manner at table on a chafing-dish by means of the spirit-lamp.
