Best 6 Smoked Oysters And Cheddar On Saltines Recipes

CHEF JOHN'S SCALLOPED OYSTERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Combine saltine crackers and butter in a bowl; stir until all crumbs are saturated with butter.
• Spread 1/3 of the saltines mixture on the bottom of a 9x13-inch casserole dish. Pour half of the oysters with their liquor over the saltines mixture. Season with cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Repeat with next 1/3 of saltines and remaining oysters. Season with cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper, and Italian parsley.
• Sprinkle remaining saltines mixture over the oysters. Drizzle cream slowly and evenly over the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bubbling and browned, 40 to 45 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes before serving.

SMOKED OYSTERS AND CHEDDAR ON SALTINES

Steps:

• Top crackers with cheddar cheese, then place one to two oysters on top.
• Lightly sprinkle with lemon juice, optional.

SMOKED OYSTERS ON CRACKERS WITH HOT SAUCE

Steps:

• Place each of the oysters onto a cracker, and then sprinkle each with the scallions and chiles. Add hot sauce, to taste.

FRIED SALTINES WITH CHEDDAR AND ONION

Steps:

• Slice the Cheddar in neat tablets slightly smaller than the saltines. Slice the onion into thin crescent moons (not half-moons), cutting from root to shoot ends so the ribs fall apart more easily, are shorter and, therefore, more manageable to chew and swallow.
• Heat the oil in a deep-sided sauté pan over medium-high to 350 degrees. Stick a wooden chopstick in the oil to see if it sizzles. If it does, it's ready. Fry the saltines in 3 quick batches, adjusting the heat as needed, using a spider or a slotted spoon to swirl them around a little and to make sure they cook evenly to golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per batch. Drain on a wire rack until cool. They keep for a week in an airtight container.
• Set the crackers, cheese and onion on a platter to serve with mustard in a ramekin.

SMOKED OYSTERS ON TOAST

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler with oven rack 5 inches from the heat. Line a baking sheet with heavy-duty aluminum foil.
• Spread the butter evenly on both sides of the bread, and place on the prepared pan. Broil in preheated oven until deep golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.
• Spread 1 ½ tablespoons Deviled Egg Spread onto each toasted bread slice. Sprinkle evenly with chopped egg whites and diced celery. Cut each slice into 4 triangles.
• Top each triangle with smoked oysters and about ¼ teaspoon of trout roe. Garnish with chopped chives, and serve with lemon wedges and hot sauce.
• Serve with: Green salads; potato, tomato, or egg dishes; grilled vegetables

SMOKED OYSTERS ON CRACKERS

Steps:

• Build each cracker base first with an oyster then with a dab of any optional ingredients and top with cheese. I place a metal rack within a small broiler proof dish, keeps the crackers from getting soggy. Place cracker bites on rack.
• Broil till cheese starts to melt - anywhere from 30 seconds to a minute. Eat immediately, doesn't keep.
