This renowned baked oyster dish was created at Antoine's Restaurant in New Orleans in 1899 by the proprietor, Jules Alciatore. According to legend, the dish was created as a substitute for baked snails, which were hard to obtain from France. It was named in honor of John D. Rockefeller, at that time one of the world's richest men, because of the sauce's intense richness. The following recipe is the old Delmonico restaurant's take on the dish, with the Rockefeller sauce base used not only to make the Oysters Rockefeller appetizer, but also used as a spread on toast to create canapés.Video:Emeril Lagasse:牡蛎洛克菲勒

Ingredients

Oysters
Rockefeller Sauce Base

Directions

Make the Sauce:
  • 将1夸脱的水煮沸。加入菠菜并煮至非常嫩,水为绿色,5至6分钟。将菠菜排在一个大碗上的漏勺中,并保留2 3/4杯烹饪液体。让菠菜坐直到足够冷却以处理,然后切碎并放在一旁。

  • 将黄油融化在中等高温的中等锅中。黄油是泡沫状的,加入洋葱,芹菜和大蒜,然后煮,搅拌,直到变软约3分钟。加入保留的菠菜水,煮沸1分钟。加入切碎的菠菜,利口酒,盐和胡椒粉,用中火煮沸,偶尔搅拌,直到混合物略微减少,约10分钟。从火上取出,加入饼干粉,搅拌均匀以结合。使用前完全冷却。

Make the Oysters:
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Spread a 1/2-inch-thick layer of rock salt on a large baking sheet and across the bottoms of 6 large plates.

  • 在烤盘上的盐顶部安排保留的牡蛎壳。将1座牡蛎放在每个壳中,然后用2至3汤匙酱汁放在顶部,将酱汁均匀地撒在壳的边缘,以完全覆盖牡蛎。(或者,将酱汁转移到装有普通尖端的糕点袋中,然后将酱汁送到牡蛎上。)

  • Bake until the sauce is lightly browned and the oysters begin to curl around the edges, 20-25 minutes.

  • Using tongs or a spatula, carefully transfer the hot shells to the salt-covered plates and serve immediately.
