Consider the Oyster
With a tip of the hat to the great food writer and chef M.F.K. Fisher…I’m still thinking about the perfect oysters I enjoyed in Biloxi, Mississippi, last week. Icy cold, slightly briny, tender and smooth, with a generous squeeze of lemon, tart red cocktail sauce and sinus-clearing horseradish…a veritable symphony for the taste buds. The very best thing about Biloxi is the impeccably fresh seafood, and oysters top the list.
“An oyster leads a dreadful but exciting life.” M.F.K. Fisher, Consider the Oyster, 1941.
