OYSTERS ROCKEFELLER
There are as many so-called original recipes for oysters Rockefeller as there are types of oysters. One account has it that the dish first surfaced at Antoine's in New Orleans in 1899. It was said to have been devised by Jules Alciatore, a grandson of the restaurant's founders. According to the story, a shortage of snails from Europe had the restaurant in jitters, and Mr. Alciatore was experimenting in the kitchen, looking for a substitute. At that time, oysters were never cooked at all, let alone fancied up with a sauce. He did so, making a sauce of watercress, scallions, celery, anise, spinach and other seasonings. It was a big hit, and he named it after America's richest man, John D. Rockefeller. Some revisionists contend that spinach was not in the original dish. My version calls for celery, spinach, scallions, parsley, garlic, anchovy fillets and Tabasco. The anchovy is my own liberal interpretation.

Steps:
- In a food processor, place the tarragon and spinach and pulse 1 to 2 times to coarsely chop. Add the panko and pulse until completely combined with the tarragon and spinach (it should look like green bread crumbs). Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl and set aside.
- In a small saute pan set over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and pancetta and cook until the pancetta is golden-brown and crispy, about 4 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and add the lemon juice, sugar and salt, stirring with a wooden spoon until the sugar is dissolved. Add the parsley and set aside.
- Pour enough grapeseed oil into 10-inch saute pan to fill it by 1/3 inch. Heat the oil over medium heat to 350 degrees F or until a few breadcrumbs sprinkled in the pan sizzle immediately but do not burn. Lightly beat the egg in a medium bowl. Add the oysters to the egg and toss gently to coat. One by one, lift them out of the egg and place them in the herb breadcrumbs. Again toss gently to make sure the oysters are coated all around, pressing gently to adhere.
- Place the breaded oysters, one at a time, into the hot oil. You should be able to fry about 6 at a time. Fry until golden brown, about 1 minute. Flip the oysters and cook another 1 minute to brown on the other side. Remove from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat the process with the remaining oysters.
- Place one oyster in each half shell and spoon some of the pancetta vinaigrette over the top. Serve warm.

ROCKIN' OYSTERS ROCKEFELLER!
I love love love oysters rockefeller and my favorite way is slightly creamy and cheesy with a hint of anise flavor. I used Ouzo cause it was on hand, but Pernod, Herbsaint or Sambuca would work. Or if you don't want to use liquor you could mince some fennel and saute with the spinach mixture. The addition of optional breadcrumbs makes for a denser topping, but omit it for a creamier version. So tasty I was eating this without the oysters. I think I have found a new decadent vegetable side dish! When I was making up this recipe I meant to add a dash of hot sauce but forgot, and I didn't miss it, but may try next time.

Steps:
- For the Rockefeller sauce: Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and bring to golden brown, about 10 minutes. Add the liqueur (CAUTION: Skillet will flame up when using a gas range.) Add the half-and-half, hot sauce, granulated garlic, granulated onion, white pepper and ground thyme. Stir and bring to a simmer.
- Add the spinach and bring back to a simmer. Turn off the flame and add the breadcrumbs and cheese. Check for consistency. If there's too much liquid, add more breadcrumbs and cheese. If it's too thick, add more half-and-half.
- For the fry dredge: Whisk together the corn flour, all-purpose flour, Creole seasoning and lemon pepper in a large bowl.
- For the sandwich: Melt the butter and garlic in a small skillet. Cut the French bread and "paint" the inside of the bread with the garlic butter. Firmly the press the inside of the bread down on a large skillet or flat-top grill to toast the bread.
- In a large heavy-bottomed saucepan, pour enough oil to fill the pan about a third of the way. Heat over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 350 degrees F. (If you don't have a thermometer, a cube of bread will brown in about 3 minutes.) Dredge the oysters in the fry dredge and then deep-fry, in batches if necessary, until golden brown and firm to the touch, about 2 minutes.
- Arrange the oysters on the inside of the bread. Top with Rockefeller sauce and garnish with Parmesan.
Tips:
- Use fresh oysters: Fresh oysters have a briny, sweet flavor that is essential for this dish. If you can't find fresh oysters, you can use frozen oysters, but be sure to thaw them completely before using.
- Don't overcook the oysters: Oysters are delicate and cook quickly. Overcooking them will make them tough and chewy.
- Use a variety of vegetables: The vegetables in this dish add flavor and texture. Feel free to use your favorite vegetables, or whatever you have on hand.
- Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that melts well. Gruyère, Parmesan, and mozzarella are all good choices.
- Serve immediately: Oysters Rockefeller is best served immediately, while the oysters are still hot and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Conclusion:
Oysters Rockefeller is a classic dish that is perfect for a special occasion. It's easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its combination of briny oysters, creamy cheese, and savory vegetables, Oysters Rockefeller is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
