the oysters heated and served at the last minute.

To quote Mme. Benoit,“This traditional Quebec dish is still very much
alive. My grandmother’s recipe is, as far as I am concerned, the best
there is.” Note: from Anne – it seems as oysters were used at
Christmas. My maternal grandmother from the American midwest had a
similar Christmas oyster dish although hers included corn.
